Sounds interesting. But you know the initial requirement for any flowscript language: continuations...
If I understood Bertrands hint towards BeanShell right, it would allow the people who are affraid of writing "real" Java code to script an object which is then used in the flowscript we have today - not replacing the current continuation language, but easing the transition for scripters towards Java for objects to be called from the flowscript.
Exactly - and it would be a nice prototyping environment as well, with the ability to easily move scripted BeanShell code to java classes later on.
