Yup of course.  I use pageflows for wizards, so only save to the database at user controlled points (normally the finish button at the end!).

I am using the no-conversation-view-id now and redirecting to an action in pages.xml which executes an SFSB method and then returns an outcome for a new *.xhtml page.  However, it would be a lot better and more contained if I could just specify the action in the pageflow definition itself - similar to the no-conversation-view-id.

Well I think that sounds like a reasonable request; start a pageflow on conversation timeout, and then populate the conversation with whatever information you want. This could be via an action method or perhaps the name of the pageflow to start.

I think the normal proceedure for this is to put it in JIRA.
