CIDF actually does have some response capabilities in the language.
Responses are requested through the "Do" verb.  So one can say things
like "Do Block" or "Do Trace", followed by a specification of what
to block or trace.  One could easily envision adding more terms for
more exotic requested actions (e.g., "Do Make Coffee" or "Do Order Mega War
Heads";).  We have been using CIDF as our response language on our DARPA
research project, and it works reasonably well.
