I have a question...
Why isn't it under consideration to take Padraic's proposal/code (and
others) and integrate a cleaned up version into Zend_View? Why do a
Zend_View_Enhanced? Why do a Zend_Layout? etc...
From what I've seen and read:
* Most developers will need one or more view enhancements that
Padraic has proposed - myself included.
* The Framework's current view implementation could use the
"enhancements" to turn it into a "robust" implementation.
* Padraic's proposal probably meets 99% of common view and layout
needs (Just a guess :-) )
* Most MVCs handle views this way - why re-invent the wheel?
* Cross-module partials would be naturally useful as modular
structure is encouraged.
I sincerely applaud the effort and the codebase of the RC3 release. In
my opinion, it is all well done and continuing to move in a positive
direction. All contributors should be really proud of the product. I
just really think this is one of the last critical pieces to the CORE
puzzle and shouldn't be neglected or fragmented into other classes or
branches.
Isn't there any interest in wrapping up all relevant contributions into
the core View implementation? What is the future plan for Zend_View?

Never have so many heads bumped the same wall...;). I do think
cross-module partials are useful. The problem doing it is configuring
a new View assuming it has no interaction with a controller. The
ViewRenderer would likely work though it's lodged in the Controller.

You mean like this: ;)
