The new official ZF site states the following on the roadmap page(Zend Framework: Why ZF?)

Out-of-the-Box AJAX

We are collaborating with a popular AJAX toolkit to improve Zend Framework's AJAX capabilities. While we plan to make components available that work out- of-the-box with a leading AJAX toolkit, we will continue to support all AJAX toolkits in our MVC and forms implementations.

Does anyone know which one they seem to be favoring?

I think they are favoring dojo and scriptaculous from some buzz on the list, but I don't think that's official.

I think the thought is to give hooks for any of them - which is how it should be. But if they had to pick one, I'd get behind jQuery, but that's just my personal preference.

However, we've been able to get MooFX working too.

Yeah I didn't want this to turn into a toolkit cheerleading thread as I'm sure they all do wonderful things for different people.

That said, I love the YUI. I use it on both personal and professional projects... I work for a very large software corporation and Big Company stuff sucks for developers sometimes... YUI helps us do a lot of good stuff without much guff from legal or qa.
