Why not collapse the entire pipeline into a single component as well, that would eliminate a massive amount of bugs and testing time of the Sitemap ;o) Componentization with semantically well-defined contracts in between, is a far better than large monoliths with innumerous permutations of configuration, rules/exceptions, outcomes, side-effects and associated subtleties. Do one thing, and do it damn well. That is what we like about Cocoon... Adult Lego! Virtualization of a pack of transformers, with optional Generator and Serializer seems like doing the job more elegantly. At least as much as I have understood reading this all. Cheers Niclas
