flow problem

[Stefano Mazzocchi <st...@apache.org>]

I just found out that the current flow implementation doesn't allow the 
flow to access internal-only pipelines.

Is there a specific reason for this or it's just the way it's currently 
implemented?

I'm asking because I wish it was possible to send internal-only 
pipelines to the user from the flow. This would make it *super easy* to 
implement an authentication framework using the flow and provide a very 
solid foundation for writing secure web applications.

Thoughts?

Stefano.

You're right. Any ideas on how to implement that?

Furthermore, views called by the flow _have_ to be internal-only : 
calling them directly doesn't really make sense since the flow passes 
them model data.

I noticed the same thing on this list some time ago.
