If CMF is focused only on CMS features, you shouldn't have workflow on
something that is not a 'content'. Now, if you was involved in workflow
sprint in Naples, you should know that we want something more powerful
than a workflow focused on content:

I use these methods during export/import to/from oldier Plone version or
to/from another CMS. It allows more readable code than making low level
programmation to rebuild an history or to force a specific workflow state.
