OK. So we have some strong and justified -1's against <map:flowmap>...

Yes your argument is convincing, so perhaps we should put the flowmap issue on the back-burner .. ;)

One small point though, I still think flow differs from a pipeline
because it contains information at more abstract level. As I noted
earlier, IMHO a pipelines purpose regardless of redirects, forwardings, or
actions is to describe a single "resource". While a flow describes a logical set of "resources"...

I agree : the flow chooses among these resources depending on both the request and the application state. That's what I called a "computed forward".

Anyway, its time for weekend..... :)
Enjoy it, mate :-)
