Hmm. In the example, locationService is a domain service and implements 
model logic. Why put model logic into the controller?

I guess what Nico meant is, that the lat/lon property is only set from 
the BE via tcemain (without Extbase) and it is optional to enter a 
value. If it is not set, it should be calculated in the FE rendering 
process (Extbase) for each request. (right after the object was rebuild 
from the repository).

So if I get it right, the property should stay in a transient state as 
long as the value is not set in the backend.

@transient does not seem to work here, since the framework then would 
never fetch the property value from the repository. Does it?
