That's the way I'm leaning at the moment.

In my intended usage the State Machine capabilities (events, actions, etc.)
are fixed when the AVRs are installed in the field.  The AVRs are
controlling small scale ride-on railroad signals.  Each AVR is the same but
implements different logic based on which track segments it is connected to,
the particular signals it is controlling, etc.

When the AVR nodes are configured different State Tables are downloaded to
them over a network based on the tasks, rules, etc. that they need to
implement due on their location, inputs assigned to them, outputs they
drive, etc.  "Moves and Changes", corrections, etc. to the signal system
logic are made by replacing the state table, no "SM Engine" code changes.
