A re-reading of the DESIGN document closely seems to indicate that this
might not be the case in all situations (although I believe that it
*should* be the case, lest you start making decisions that should be
reserved for the controller).  It's not entirely clear.  I am still at
least mostly convinced that the current behaviour is better than the
behaviour your patch proposes, but it probably requires more research.
