* An implementation of a JSF <code>NavigationHandler</code> that provides integration with Spring Web Flow.
* Responsible for delegating to Spring Web Flow to launch and resume flow executions, treating JSF action outcomes
* (like a command button click) as web flow events.
*
* This class delegates to the standard NavigationHandler implementation when a navigation request does not pertain to a
* flow execution.
* <p>
* Specifically, the following navigation handler algorithm is implemented:
* The following navigation handler algorithm is implemented by default:
* </p>
* <p>
* If a flow execution has been restored in the current request:
* <ul>
* <li>If a flow execution is <strong>not</strong> currently in progress:
* <li>Resume the flow execution by signaling the JSF action outcome as an event against the current state.
* <li>Once event processing completes expose the selected view as the "current" {@link ViewSelection}.
* </ul>
* </p>
* <p>
* If a flow execution has not been restored in the current request:
* <ul>
* <li>If the specified logical outcome <strong>is</strong> of the form
* <em>flowId:xxx</em>, look up the corresponding
* {@link org.springframework.webflow.engine.Flow} definition with that id and
* launch a new flow execution in the starting state. Expose information to
* indicate that this flow is in progress and render the starting
* {@link ViewSelection}.</li>
* <li>If the specified logical outcome is <strong>not</strong> of the form
* <em>flowId:xxx</em>, simply delegate to the standard
* <code>NavigationHandler</code> implementation and return.</li>
* </ul>
* </li>
* <li>If a flow execution <strong>is</strong> currently in progress:
* <ul>
* <li>Load the reference to the current in-progress flow execution using the
* submitted <em>_flowExecutionKey</em> parameter.</li>
* <li>Resume the flow execution by signaling what action outcome (aka event)
* the user took in the current state.
* <li>Once state event processing to complete, render the
* <code>ViewSelection</code> returned.</li>
* </ul>
* </li>
* <li>If the specified logical outcome is of the form <em>flowId:xxx</em> look up the corresponding
* {@link FlowDefinition} with that id and launch a new flow execution in the starting state. Expose the new execution
* as the "current" flow execution for this request. Expose the first selected view as the "current" view selection.
* <li>If the specified logical outcome is not of the form <em>flowId:xxx</em>, simply delegate to the standard
* <code>NavigationHandler</code> implementation and return.
* </ul>
* </p>
* How the flowId and eventId arguments are extracted can be customized by setting a custom
* {@link #setArgumentExtractor(FlowExecutorArgumentExtractor) argument extractor}.
