+      models (<tt>model.view</tt> and <tt>view.model</tt>). Others prefer to have intermediate 
       "controller" objects that orchestrate the creation and organization of 
       views into a hierarchy. Others still prefer the evented approach, and always
       fire events instead of calling methods directly. All of these style work well.
