You may not always want to go to C. My example didn’t highlight that, so 
apologies. 

It turns out that you can’t goto within anything other than a when handler 
anyhow (which makes sense to me).

What I did subsequently was send a message to self during B’s onTransition and 
capture it within B’s when. The code looks decent and correct in accordance 
with my state machine diagram.
