Indeed. As does the existence of a framework in the first
place - but it
saves developer time and makes things easier to maintain
which is the whole
point.

I totally agree, and believe convention should be used
wherever possible in
ZF to make life easier (ie. default view template names,
etc).

In Rails, for example, you can specify table and field names
to get over
this. As long as ZF has this kind of flexibility all will be
fine.
