The question is if you/we trying to invent
"yet-another-scripting-language"...

The examples mentioned so far a basically from two categories:
1) the above one, the sure route to endless can of worms to be opened

2) rules,filters,triggers,messaging-actions
These can all be treated as declarative rather than procedural, which
means that they are easy to spec out in XML and safe at the same time.
And they can work both on the server and the client.

Just my $0.02
