There are a number of things that need to be calculated across the domain. We have started discussing [1] some phases of processing at a higher level than are currently contained in the depths of the ContributionService, assembly builders and composite activators. I've started a technical note [2] on this subject to net out the conversation from that thread (hasn't been much recently but it is on my mind and Sebastien has been doing things on the Contribution Worksapce judging by the SVN log). So from the point of view of this thread we should ensure that the blocks of processing you have extended the existing processing steps with, i.e. the bits you added to [3], are suitably accessible so that the can easily be called from higher level steps [2] I guess we need to get a bit more concrete on the higher level steps.
