Using Zend Framework components in CI

Excellent, loadClass() does what I was looking for. Might not be possible in raw PHP but their loader class allows you to pass the constructor an array of parameters.

Code:

Zend_Loader::loadClass('Container_Tree',
    array(
        '/home/production/mylib',
        '/home/production/myapp'
    )
);

This can easily be added to CI loader. Should it be $this->load->zend(? Not sure of the best implementation.

Also, not sure we need to use Zend Loader, we can do some basic checks and exception handling in the CI loader class.
