Please read the documentation for Zend_Application. All _init* methods
will be executed by the bootstrap, and can be bootstrapped individually
(or the resource returned by the method retrieved) using the method name
minus the _init prefix.

So that it can perform autoloading of those models. Typically, the
application/models directory is not on your include_path, and even if it
were, it should contain classes with their own vendor prefix.
Please read my devzone article on it for more information:
