Joel
I agree with you.  My first question to Juergen was trying to poke in that direction to explore his model based on that concept. 
Unfortunately, he required I defined what I meant Tuesday/Wednesday by ephemeral opstate.
I am at a meeting so my email is busy

 From where I sit, there is no such thing as "ephemeral operational 
state".  There is "operational state" that reflects the effect of 
"ephemeral configuration", but as far as I can tell, it is still just 
"operational state".

Putting aside the operational state aspects, we do need to work out the 
diagramming / positioning of the ephemeral configuration and its 
relationship to the other components in the base diagram.

Yours,
Joel
