Hello.

I was wondering about where global user functions should be put. In the 
application that I am working on, I have created a function that is 
responsible for updating the "navigation path" (i.e. the asset that 
allows users to know where they are at and to jump to any previous 
locations). This function is called by every fuseaction that results in 
a change of page. My question is where should I put this function so 
that it would be visible by all circuits of the application. Would it be 
appropriate to place it in the home circuit's settings file?

While writing the above question, two thoughts came to my mind. The 
first is whether I should forget about a user function and have an 
action fuse to do that instead (which would be called via cfmodule). How 
is that? It certainly sounds more FBish, but are there any cons (e.g. 
performance hit)? The second thought is in fact another question: what 
are the common practices when implementing the aforementioned asset? Is 
there any FB classical way of doing it? I though about taking advantage 
of the fusebox.circuits structure, but that would not do, since the text 
to be shown will seldom correspond to the keys used. That would require 
me to create a parallel structure, mapping circuit names to 
user-friendly names.

Thank you for your ideas and comments,
