Interesting. I just again tried DAB (served by US) - PWM (served by CO, US, UA) and got this award search error:

Continental or its partners serve these cities but do not publish schedules or fares between them. It may be possible to construct an itinerary using two separate fares by calling 1-800-300-1547.

In fact, there is a simple DAB-CLT-PWM sold by US as well as dozens of two-segment routings through EWR/ORD/PHL/DCA.

I withdraw my generalization that both cities must be CO served, but it seems there are certain complexities.
