Dear Jeremy,
it is also probably NOT "drift" but drift, as the path taken by animals, when drovers drive animals is an excellent equivalent, if you get my drift. (Good set of English words: drift, drive, drove.)
cheers

There is a design concept or an architectural term that means 'the path that people walk, not the path they were supposed to walk. So as designers, we design a way for people to proceed through a space, but people as a whole wear their own path that is different' I've heard this used once and did not note it clearly, I'm wondering if people know this term. It may have been a french, german, or greek derived term.
it is not:
path
trace
cowpath
