This sounds like a context thing.

photos, it is just a matter of a click on a checkbox. With this, it is easy
to see photos with marc and chouchou (marc is my son, chouchou is my cat).
It is possible to make exclusion, for a FAQ program, it will be possible to
search for FAQ with 'bind and 'use but not with 'view.
> Back to the question : I don't want the main program to know about photos,
or FAQ or anything else. However it's not the same to show a photo or to
display a FAQ. So I need a generic function, used during the test, that will
be replaced with minimum effort (I'm actually from the south of france ;-)
with the required function.
