I actually don't care wether it is an object, or a system fuction. It 
must work, that's it. What made me think about the object to organize 
flow of other objects is that such a thing (a work-flow in any form) can 
be of separate interest for authors and teachers. If it is, then 
shareability will be a problem for a system function to compare with an 
object, right?

I meant it in generic form: course as such is not quite suitable form to 
organize dialogue of texts.

Right question! We need to specify it. Say, title, list of texts with 
some related data (author, time , sourse...), and supposed links between 
them. Links of different types: contradicts, develops, doubts, 
complements.  Probably, smth. else.  Let's think together  for a little 
while and I'll put it in specs in few days. All right?
