True. We already started working on a standalone version. The new 
standalone view still depends on a few Extbase classes but encapsulates 
all the inner workings so it can be refactored.
Unfortunately there are a lot of other issues to solve..

Right. That was changed in FLOW3 recently and I'm about to backport this 
to Extbase (so you can more easily define your own templating engine)

I don't like the idea of Fluid providing controllers.. It is a 
templating engine and should be independent of the MVC pattern IMO.

Regarding the container extension, we could "copy" that code into 
Extbase (it's not that much after all). But having it as custom 
extension in the core allows people to use DI without the need to 
install Extbase (even the core could make use of it!).
