Question: What's an "application framework" in the context of this discussion?

Right - it's that App framework that I consider the extra layer. I'm not suggesting that's a bad thing, just a layer I don't have in my systems at the moment.

Sure you do. You just use a layer that is implemented soley as a AxKit Language module.(which, incidently, limits you to being able to serve only URIs that have associated files on the disk -- application-based ContentProviders are *not* similarly limited)

If I have an App Provider that accepts data from the client, handles some back-end side effects, and returns dynamic content in response-- how is that more of an "extra layer" than an writing an XSP or XPS document that is handed off to Language processors to do the same things?
