Christopher Brooks commented on MH-8695:
----------------------------------------

"If, however, the Matterhorn team overwhelmingly agrees that the only way to 
effectively use it is if they do understand the underlying implementation"

I think this is my perspective.  That the end user cannot use the system 
effectively without understanding that.  Workflows are fundamentally different 
than recordings - recordings are data structures, or artifacts, where workflows 
are processes that can be run, rerun, and parameterised.  Hiding this by 
attempting to "dumb down" the model so the user doesn't have to understand it 
isn't helping us enable them.

I don't think we have to be very complex, but for them to know that they are 
scheduling a recording to happen and *then a series of processes will run* is 
important.
