I agree with the premise, but I fail to see how Zend_Loader::load ('Class') or Zend_Registry::getInstanceOf('Class', $args) would not do the same thing, but be a better separation of concerns.

This is where it gets totally subjective :)

Despite identical functionality, to me the name Zend_Loader seems a bit awkward and implies less of a 'core' component, whereas simply 'Zend' does seem to be core and more naturally related to all components within the framework. I would imagine that Zend_Registry::getInstanceOf would call Zend::load to retrieve the class, so they're not mutually exclusive.
