to views views

i seem right bound plead another programmer digest thinks views have merits. proposes component php looks something this:

$draw = new draw;
$nav = $draw->wideheaderbox().
$draw->left().
    $draw->image().
        image::get($image,60,array('id'=>'header_image')).
    $draw->imageend().
$draw->leftend().
$draw->left(10).
    '<div id="header_text">'.
        self::defaultsectiontext().
    '</div>'.
$draw->leftend().

and (this controller btw). arguments indeed sense, claims there redesign need change html place changes everywhere automatically. reason however, slight still rubs me wrong way, there any effect views over method? i meant besides carrying retype html hand.
