I'm not *that* bad a coder, I can make recursive calls in code! But I'm
wondering how to ensure that a new continuation is created so that I can run a
"sub-" formwizard with it's own continuation and then use the old continuation
id to return from it. While I know how continuations are continued from the
flow examples, I don't know exactly how to break back into an xmlforms
continuation with a particular id. It is built up a little more, at a
high-level. And I don't immediately have any pipeline that takes a continuation
id like from the flow examples for the form and form-wizard frameworks. That is
my wondering.
