Re: [Perl-workflow-devel] Auto-write extra data after an action?

[jonasbn <jo...@gm...>]

Well,

As I see it it should be up to the programmer to decide how this  
should be handled. I see a parallel to the auto-commit flag in DBI.

I am very open to a flexible way to handle this.

The question is where to put the hook so we can control this.
