Adding support for multiple partials directories will enable people to have their partials split across various directories. One common use-case is shared vs. server-only partials, where the shared partials are also used on the client, e.g., an app could have "shared/templates" and "views/partials" directories which contain templates that can be used as partials.
When naming the partials for use in other templates, each partials dir would be considered a root, therefore "views/partials/header.handlebars" would be available via {{> header}}. This creates a situation for naming collisions, which can be managed in a last-one-wins fashion.
