I'm wide open to suggestions on how you can *force* somebody to separate its flow logic from its business logic. Also, I'm wondering how you can make this 'forcing' be effective no matter what the flow and business logic of somebody is. My opinion is: let's keep the flowscript and let's keep it limited to what we need today and be careful in adding more features in the future. The rest will be done with docos about best practices, flow patterns and guidelines. Just like you can write crappy software in Java and great software in Perl.
