Uh (again)? I'm wondering if there's not a misunderstanding here: 
this FIXME is about knowing if a flowscript is allowed to terminate 
without stating what page it to be displayed, i.e. check if one of 
sendPage(), sendPageAndWait() or redirectTo() was called.




I think that flow should cover as many features of the actions as 
possible, and for this, it should be allowed not to redirect (as 
actions are allowed to do):

<map:call method="doSomething"/>
<map:generate/>
<map:transform/>
<map:serialize/>


Mmmh... in that case, we need a flowscript function to return a Map of 
sitemap variables. Shouldn't it be better to have a 
"flowscript-action" that would call a function (and not a 
continuation) and would share global variables with flowscript while 
not being allowed to call sendPageAndWait()?


Hmm...

<map:call method="login">
 <map:generate src="protected.xml"/>
 <map:transform/>
 <map:serialize/>
</map:call>
login () {
 while (!loggedin) {
   sendPageAndWait("login");
   loggedin = ...
 }
 return ('username': username, 'profile': profile);
}
You mean something like this? No objections so far. :)
What flowscript method returns currently?
