Description

In the later Minecraft versions, vanilla adds NBT path, which is much similar to sponge's dataquery except that one NBT path can represent multiple targets at once with its filtering and multi-index selection (in list) ability.

Given text partially depends on NBT path (the nbt components) and that part of the NBT path (in the path filters) model is already interfaced out in kyoripowered nbt library, maybe the NBT path can be considered to have a library.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing the existing NBT path filter model in the kyoripowered NBT library and how Adventure’s text components depend on NBT paths. Before coding, clarify the intended library scope and define completion criteria for representing filtered and multi-index paths.
