I rewrote the docs for Zend_Controller for the 0.9.3 release, and the
main thrust of it was to detail the dispatch process as a whole, and
then give greater detail on each of the subcomponents.

The process is not necessarily the same in all MVC frameworks, though
the basic principals are the same (separating display and business
logic; using a controller to determine what models are in play and which
views to use).

Check out the new documentation:

    http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.controller.html

and give feedback where things are unclear, either to the list or via
the issue tracker.
