Oh yeah I agree that Three20 is a cluttered, monolithic mess. What I should have said was that Three20 was the first major attempt (that I know of) to break away from the strict nested-controller way of making data-driven apps by implementing a pretty nice URL-based application model.

Matt Gallagher has also done a good job of deconstructing the Apple Way and try new approaches: http://cocoawithlove.com/2009/03/recreating-uitableviewcontr...

Does recreating UITableViewController to be slightly more flexible really constitute a new approach?

It's not slightly more flexible, it's hugely more flexible. As someone who has apps that consist of a complicated web of tableviews, Matt Gallagher's work is amazing and helped me immensely.

Although, I think this link is better: http://cocoawithlove.com/2010/12/uitableview-construction-dr...

If you remove "to be slightly more flexible" from my previous post, you'll find the real point I was trying to make.

I think he's referring to TTNavigator, which is a really cool idea (and an idea I stole for my use in Cydia.mm, fwiw).
