Controllers may be chained together, but the URI that triggers the dispatched
action represents a unique item. I.e., the URI may describe a movement in
relationship to its parent track and its parent CD, but the URI describes the
*movement*.
But that might just be philosophical neither-nor-there.
In general, I find name-spacing the stash a useful exercise, esp when dealing
with multiple developers using the stash as they work on different parts of a
single dispatch chain.
