Yeah, I thought a little about this. And basically my thought is that to 
deprecate the /layers/<l> syntax once we the split. To support the old 
syntax we use the same lookup tricks we use today for layers and feature 
types: 1) check for a prefixed name and 2) check for case of a single 
layer with that name, etc...

For instance to reference the following layer:

/maps/m/layer/l

We allow people to use /layers/m:l

Or just /layers/l

If only a single map has a layer named "l".
