Can you please explain in more detail what the problem was with the redirection using the cocoon:/ protocol and the Portal framework? I don't see where an issue could appear. You almost always want the page to be redirected to an internal pipeline. Perhaps a better solution is to remove the "cocoon:/" string from the AbstractInterpreter.forwardTo() method and put it in the system.js sendPage() function, which at least could be redefined.

Oh, thank you very much! I'm glad you like the concept, I'll try to improve it even more.
