Personally I don't see this as a logical problem at all. If you think of the web page as a floorplan with different rooms, each room is like a zone--each with it's own content. The main zone looks exactly like the others in the skin file and it certainly fills space (a zone) in the "floorplan". The only difference between the main zone and any other zone is what goes in that space. Main gets the content of the page specified in the url. The other zones get their content from pages relative hierarchically to that page. It is a zone--which is why it should be in the zones action. The purpose of the zone action is to present an edit and source link to every section of a given page. To leave out the main zone would be to leave out the biggest and most important zone in the page. Of course we can "think" about zones any way we wish, and BoltWire generally gives you the freedom to configure things with similar freedom---as you've demonstrated. If hiding the main (pagecontent) zone in the zone action helps you, that's great. I should have suggested that a while back.
