+/**
+ * Exit the current flowscript invocation.
+ * <p>
+ * There are some flowscript use cases where we want to stop the current 
+ * flowscript without creating a continuation, as we don't want the user 
+ * to go back to the script.
+ * <p>
+ * An example is a "login" function where the caller function expects this 
+ * function to exit only if login is successful, but that has to handle 
+ * e.g. a registration process that includes a "cancel" button.
