This exactly is the motive why I opened this tread:  to request a better (or 
more elegant) way to transfer state (an ending result) back to the parent 
conversation when the nested conversation ends.

When using Seam for the implementation, these models eventually would have to 
be mapped to Seam-based code.    Clearly, Seam's nested conversation feature is 
somewhat limited as long as it is akward to transfer state back to the parent 
conversation (eg. if artificial POJO classes just for this state transfer have 
to be written).
