Giacomo, Sylvain,

I see my remark wasn't that stupid after all (taking as an argument the fact the statistic unlikeliness of having exact equal idiots) Sorry, for not earlier reading deeper down the thread though...

only I'm not ready to give in yet...

is making a continuation really atomicly linked to sending a page? Your argumentation makes me see that:
Rather then 2 there are 3 concerns covered in the sendPageAnd...
I guess it's more like
makeAContinuationRef_And_UseItToSendPage_And_SafeStateForNextRequest :-)

The problem is that you need to have something to place on the page
that links to the continuation id. Thus you need to have your
continuation before sending the page. Hence suspending and sending is
one atomic operation.

Now I see it: when the page is sent the links are available to be clicked upon and thus the 'state' should be there.

I only considered the creation part ATM (and there I argumented that for creating the URI-links you don't need to save the state yet)

Think I got it now, so we are back to the straightforward naming discussion... thinking back of my highschool-basic-time this kinda boils down to finding the equivalent of

0 CLS
10 PRINT "This is only out:"
20 INPUT "This prompt asks you to enter something:" , answer

which would make me advocate

for the output only:
sendPage("name-o-page") or even
printPage(...) or
echoPage(...)

for the input kind of page
getFormInput("name-o-form") or
getFormReply(...)
