Recently I've been reading papers on Partial Continuations and Subcontinuations. These are basically restricted forms of call/cc. Instead of capturing a full continuation they allow only capturing a continuation up to a certain point, marked in the program in some manner. These partial continuations can be called, and they return back to the caller unlike full continuations.

In attempting to understand how these can be applied to continuation based web frameworks I've written an article describing how and why partial continuations could be used in that context. Somehow I think 'partial continuation based web framework' or 'subcontinuation based web framework' is even less likely to be used as a catchy marketing term!
