I think it is a good pattern and instead we use it in Tryton but we don't
expose it like ERP5 does.

I will give you an example on how the ERP5 pattern can be found in Tryton
based on the sale order:

The sales lines are movements
The products on sale lines are resources
The company, warehouse and party are nodes
The prices lists are paths

(I don't see items in this example, but it could be a serial number linked
to product).

In Tryton, this concept is not so exposed then in ERP5.
We don't try to make the system as much customizable throught the interface.
We think that it is simplier to have just custom modules that inject the
needed code to rule your business.
