In some cases we'll need to link the token state with our POJO state
for example: suppose that we have a car rental application and its workflow is:
 

  |                                          1.add a new car to our warehouse
  |                                                              |
  |                                                              |
  |                                           2.rent a car from warehouse.
  |                                                              |
  |                                                              |
  |                                           3. do some maintenance to car.
  |                                                      [-- FORK --]
  |                                                      /           \
  |                                                    /               \
  |                              if car is OK then car           else car goes 
to 
  |                              returned to warehouse.           mechanic to 
repair
  | 


This is abstract example. so what I mean that i will create a POJO class that 
reflect a car in my database and this POJO has an attribute that defines what 
is the state of my car (created, inWarhouse, rented, goToMaintenance, carOK, or 
carInRepair)

I know that the instance of each ProcessDefinition can be persisted in DB with 
its current state, but in this case we do not need this, we need that when 
creating a new instance of the process definition, I tell the instance to jump 
to a state or node equivalent to the state of my Car POJO selected from 
database. By another mean I need to mapping the ProcessDefinition instance 
state with one of my POJO attributes and define the instance state or node by 
calling somthing like this instance.setState(myCarPojo.getCarState());.

The question is : is this possible? if yes by any way, how we can implement 
this?
