 Trouble is, the site-root location is a variable.

-Turns out the backend processing can in fact handle the required shorthand, and one can specify jail root relative user home.
+Turns out the problem was wrongly posed.
+* FTP jail is normally handled by the FTP server in its configuration. proftp for example allows domain-specific jails. Fine.
+* ''Problem'' is actually to dynamically set 'hostspec' to be the current user's domain so that one-click login to ftp works with correct ftp-server-resolving of appropriate jail root.
 
-Thus, the following achieves the goal of (2)
-{{  'root' => '~/../..', }}
-{{  'home' => '~', }}
+Is for example the current domain running horde available as
+ 'hostspec' => $GLOBALS['something...'],
 
-The undocumented part is that setting 'root' requires that 'home' also be specified (Gollem v1).
+For that matter, is there any quick way to see what global values are available?
