The CasMultiplier is not a scoping operator per se. I understood that you want to scope your AEs to specific sections of a CAS. Since there is no generic scoping operator in UIMA (that I would be aware of), the next best thing one can do (I think) is to slice the CAS into multiple CAS that each represent the scope you want to work on and merge them in the end.
