Toni,

No, a locator cannot name a specific path.  

By the basic definition of a Locator, 
it names a place, not a path.

That definition of the term "Locator" is broadly 
accepted within this RG, across multiple proposals 
(e.g. LISP, ILNP, and several others).  I second Noel's 
suggestion to re-read IEN-19.  For that matter, 
it would be helpful to re-read IEN-23 and IEN-1.

Yours,

Ran


PS:  IEN-1 is only available in PDF, not in text/plain.
