No, that functionality doesn't offer a path filter, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.
Ok, I am thinking that to get around it, I would have to create a separate template id for each path and then limit search to that template ID via "template_filter": "id_here". BUT then I might run into "too_many_templates" error. How many is too many? What's that number?
