This issue links to JBPM-3232.

I would like the node ID, from the process definition file (i.e. .bpmn or .rf file), to be a field of a WorkItem. This requires changes to knowledge-api and drools-core as well as the jBPM code base.

It's useful to know, when handling a WorkItem in a WorkItemHandler, which node from the process definition is being run (particularly if the same task type is used multiple times in the workflow).

I've attached the required changes, both for the 5.5.0.Final code, and also the latest trunk.
