It seems to me that an MPD is functionally equal to a disk folder which has
been added to the (beginning of the) search path for parts. No more, no
less. If a part is found in the search path it is used, if it is not found
it is ignored (with an optional error message).
The interesting part is when you build up a scene, adding one MPD at a time,
manually - should MPD2 be allowed to use parts from MPD1? Caching would
allow this, 'locality' would deny it. MPD1 can definitely not reference
anything inside MPD2, as not even the user has decided to load that one yet.
