Though I see your emoticon, I don't really understand this statement
- if there's confusion about a post, quoting is the easiest way to
clear it up, which is why it's a regular practice in e-mail / mailing
lists.

No, not necessarily - I don't have enough information about the OP's
project. I was merely mentioning that your assertion that views should
communicate with controllers via the model layer (which is what your
original message seemed to imply) is incorrect as stated because it
implies this is *always* (or even "usually") the case.
Further, I was suggesting that your blanket statement that
controllers shouldn't communicate with one-another (generally or not)
is incorrect (or at least inaccurate) because such an approach is a
matter of design, whether because of your 'tastes' or functional
requirements.

Indeed. A lack of concrete specifications in the OP's project or our
examples so far makes design debates pointless in this discussion. I
just want to make sure that if we make assertions, we do so without
ambiguity. Anything less may make someone else's life a whole lot
harder than it needs to be.
No harm was intended on my part.
