I looked at the ZF in some detail when they first announced it. Does it
support any magic CRUD screen generation stuff yet? I appreciate that this
is only a small part of why one would use a framework but it's quite a handy
one for prototyping.

I've spent the last few weeks (what feels like) pulling teeth getting up to
speed using Symfony which has a massive learning curve and I'm no-where near
feeling comfortable using it yet though most of this is down to the fact
that I'm learning about 4 new things at once. It's obvious that it's very
powerful, the documentation is the best I have ever seen for something so
young (1st birthday this week) and for quick win CRUD generation it's superb
AFAICT. I does smell a bit of rails, though.
