These are not really great because then elements are no longer homogeneous. That is, "/" is allowed in the front element but not the others. So

u.segments().insert( u.segments().begin(), "/" );

is okay, but these are not:

u.segments().insert( u.segments().begin(), "home" );

u.segments().push_back( "/" );

As I said, you're probably fine omitting the root directory.
