It depends on the type of changes you're making to the presentation layer.  No system 
is going to help you if you remove the textbox from the page - you're going to have to 
make not-insignificant code changes.  All architectures like MVC do is _minimize_ the 
_number_ and _impact_ of changes.  It doesn't prevent them.

On the other hand, if your UI guy decides to move some elements around, you can be 
fairly confident that your codebehind page won't have to change.
