I agree, but all that needs to be standardized is the "interface" to
these processes.  Whether they trigger a complex choreographed operation
lasting weeks or months, or just complete the order then and there, the
interface can be the same.  After that, it's just a game of "follow the
declared state transitions" (which has its own issues, but they're
manageable).
