Its purpose is to track the assets that the tools has created. That is
the only way that Zend_Tool can determine the context of a particular
file.. so it answers questions like: "is this file a model file or a
controller file?" "What is this directory for", "Where is the models
directory for my new model created by Zend_Tool".
In the future, there will be a way for Zend_Tool to determine and/or
scan an existing project for classes and files you've created by hand.
Its the next big priority on the list.

It's a shame there's not a "zf recreated projectfile" command :)
Does the .zfproject.xml file in fact serve any purpose at all other than wasting my time?
I have found it very inconvenient to need to update it every time I manually add a model
or controller or whatever, or to fix it after I "zf create"d something only to
decide I needed to rename it later, but actually the application seems to work fine no
matter what the project file contains, or indeed even if I delete the project file
entirely. So what is it there for?
