Perhaps "We want submodule A and B's sub(sub)*modules all the way down to the leaf submodule, but directory C houses many submodules, among which only one can be active, and we want C/X and its sub(sub)*modules all the way down to the leaf but not C/Y nor C/Z or any other C/." and similar requests along the line.
