Sounds good to me. On the other hand we should also
think about putting together a collection (module) of 
dsssl declarations/functions that provide ready-to-use 
functonality (as an alternative to adding new flow object classes). 
If you make this pre-defined items cofigurable
you can even allow the user to adjust them if he wants to.
