Please forgive me if I'm butting in too much here. If the API`s are
understood and documented, then I think the application model could
work on that scale. Isn't that what middleware; e.g.; an Orb, is
supposed to do?

Hi Robert:
Well, not really. The ORB is more than a controller.
The patterns used are a bit more generic, OBSERVER, and others, which
are generalizations of the more limited MVC pattern.
