That sounds like a decent solution to mee too (especially since we
don't do much fancy stuff in views, tho linkTo() and whatnot are
getting us there), but I gotta say, that also sounds like mixing
things that shouldn't be *cough*in a perfect world*cough*.

For my money, "renderers" are where "it's" at.  You're not
copy-and-pasting various views from project to project, you can do
inheritance type deals (theoretically reducing repetition, but it
might depend on if you work on many projects or few projects, etc.),
and you can use them in "views" (not just MG views).

I mean, this is probably from futsing with eclipse, but it seems like
the UI is a model itself, as confusing as that may be with terms like
MVC (they're all models! ahhhhh!).

Eh.  I'll holler when I've got The Perfect Code to share, if ya dig,
but that's sorta my line of thinking.
