You should call Zend_Dojo::enableView($view) in your bootstrap,
regardless of whether your given action will be utilizing it. By
default, the dojo() view helper is still disabled -- it is only when you
actually manually enable it or utilize dijit form elements that it will
be marked as enabled.
The dojo() view helper sets up your dojo environment for you -- so if
your own JS depends on dojo, you should definitely enable it in such
situations using enable() -- otherwise dojo.js will not be included on
your page, and you'll run into all sorts of other issues.
