Hi Daniel,

thank you for testing lib/div and for feedback.

It's historically grown. See suggestin for Beta Branch:

Just do it. Use it your way. No problem. Regard the Pipeline of Processors
(PoP) as a feature not as a must. There are many alternative ways how to
use lib.

Right. That's IMHO a PAC architecture. You can use lib that way.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presentation-abstraction-control

In lib a PAC node exists either of a monolithic object (controller) or at
least of 3 objects (model, view, controller). 

To connect it into the PoP an additional processor object is requiered. So a
PoP-widget has: model, view, controller plus processor.

See the resultbrowser as example. To use it outside PoP just drop the
processor and call it directly by the controller.
