Comment(by neteler):

 Sextance uses GRASS in a very efficient way, no need to understand GRASS'
 location-mapset concept. It creates a mapset on the fly and just runs the
 analysis in a temporary session as indicated above. Works nicely in the
 gvSIG-OADE-Sextante-GRASS package which I indicated in the GRASS Wiki
 page. It would be a BIG (and likely rather easy to implement) improvement
 of the QGIS-GRASS integration to use the same method. All pieces are
 likely there.
