Evidently this scenarios only can be filled by a generator using the
right model. I think in a modular 3
step,(hmap/(lmap)-->tmap/wmap/etc-->finished) if a external generator
not understand the second step a tmap/wmap/etc sceanrio can't be used
with this generator. that is not bad at all, for this scenarios only one
generators is ok as all the real work is already done by the scenario
maker.

we not impose it to all generator! spetially we not impose it to
external ones. see right now, gen 1 and 5 use this model, gen 2-4 not.
this is ugly for us as we as to mantain 2 code. i think we can unify our
generators to folow the some model. but if not. that will be ok any way.
