Hi Nicolas, often your places are "parameterized", think of a detail/edit screen for example that needs the model's id. The token is a generic way to provide additional information (via the URL) to the place (i.e. the activity/-ies), i.e. "#editFoo:42".
You can of course re-use one place to dispatch to several activities based on the token. See the (currently not used) for ProxyPlace and ProxyListPlace in the Expenses sample for an example.
