this is a tricky one (terminologically): I think the word 'flow'
is always referring to the thing being signalled for; the problem
is that this is only a data flow (in the traditional sense) for
the path coupled MRM. For example, in signalling for the NATFW REA
case there is clearly per-FOO state, but FOO is not really a data
flow (since no flow yet exists).
I have added an issue to the tracker for this.
