Where they happen to be, great. I think that our (dotMobi's) objective is to create moki and XSLT in such a way as they can be run in a framework independent manner. That said, there is no intention to be hard-nosed about it. For the sake of clarity, why is the "if X, re-request the document with headers Y and Z" different to "if the status is 301 or 302 re-request the document with the same headers as before", which is all reasonably accommodated with plain moki and xslt?
