Why? The conductor in an orchestra, for example, follows a set of rules (the music sheet) and controls the orchestra to perform the music. I'd really like to *not* use coordinator.

(iv) cohesion sounded OK to those involved, though I think Keith was going to see if he could come up with something else.

As has been mentioned several time by different people, "business transactions" is far too loose a term, and really can mean different things to different people.
