Today I was thinking exactly the same thing. AFAIK, at least from looking at the RubyonRails screencast, that's how the ROR scaffolding thing works. They have a set of scripts, scaffold it's one of these, and you can do:
./script/generate scaffold ModelName ControllerName With this you get a view and a controller properly populated which you can elaborate on. There is also a dynamic scaffold function that you can call from inside your controller: scaffold :ModelName If I got it correctly this solution suffers from the problems Ronald already pointed out.
