  Yes, that's what I understood.  The question is: can we do
anything to detect that?

  Let's take the example of a pipeline launched by the insertion
of a document (yes, I know the pipeline itself is not "executed",
but that's a good abstraction though).  From what I understand,
the installation of the pipeline creates a trigger on document
insertion (which is pre-commit), and a trigger on property change
(which is post-commit).  The first trigger sets a property on the
newly inserted document (setting its status to created), and that
fires the second trigger, but only after the transaction has been
committed (as a task if I am right).

  This second trigger in turn sets the state to "initial" and
executes the module associated with that state.  If this module
does times out, then this transaction is rolled back, and the net
effect is that even the state is not recorded on the document.

  If that is correct, I do not see any way to detect whether the
state has succeeded or not (at least in case of a timeout).

  But maybe my understanding is simply not correct...

  That's maybe the missing piece.  Thanks for the link!
