    ****************************************************************
    The Workflows task is enhanced, as follows:
    
    1. The "Create New Based on Existing" table action is new. A
    workflow owner can use this function to upgrade a workflow to a
    new level of a workflow definition without losing data or having
    to start over again by creating a new instance. This function
    simplifies the process for workflow authors who need to supply
    users with revised or corrected workflow definitions.
    
    2. The "Update Workflow Steps" table action is new. A workflow
    owner can use this function to customize a workflow with user-
    supplied steps that are specific to your environment. The user-
    supplied steps can be modified or deleted later, as needed.
