Done, http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/BPEL-92.

I used the same approach when I worked on a BPML engine few years ago (graph 
oriented programming), but the loops (while, until) had inner stacks, so the 
maximum inner stack size was equal to the number of activities the loop had.  
Eventually pushed the process instances (BPML allows call) for an eventual 
compensation!

It is my favorite programming method, as it allows fast development for quite 
complex issues. Backtracking, state machines, type 3 grammar parsers, and 
branch-and-bound are a breeze. But, I noticed over the years that at enterprise 
level this approach is risky since it requires large stacks - and the data base 
can be huge, easy run out of memory. Ever since I try to avoid it, and use good 
old Knuth techniques; also, this method it is incredible difficult to explain 
(knowledge transfer) to others -- very surprised to notice that.

I will hit you soon with another suite of issues I found with BPEL 
implementation, hope you don't mind. 

Regards,
AA
