SCXML: Transition spec reuse

Dear all,

I think the following use case is not really covered by the current 
SCXML spec:

Suppose that I need to specify a transition that will always occur 
independently of the current state. For example, in a Mobile Web 
Application when the user press the 'Home' link I always want to
navigate to the home page.

If I need to specify this behaviour in every application state it will 
be unmaintanable.

I suggest to allow the specification of transitions as children of the 
<scxml> root element and that transitions will apply to any of the 
states defined in the SCXML, (if there is no an specific transition in 
any state that overwrites it. )

Thanks and best regards
