     I was wondering if we can re-use some elements of the scaffolding infrastructure in other projects such as MVC. Field templates are a prime candidate of this since they don;t use postbacks as far as I can see.

    Also, is there anything specific to Dynamic Data Svcs in rendering, validation etc attributes you use in the Linq to SQL model?

    These re very cool ideas that can be adapted to numerous other frameworks... 

    Thanks,

    Yes, we are absolutely planning to add such scaffolding support to ASP.NET MVC.  In fact, you can preview it if you download the MVCToolkit from here.  It contains an MVC blog project that includes this.  It's very preliminary, but can give you a sense of where we're going.

    I don't quite understand your second question.  Currently, we only support Linq to Sql, but will soon support Linq to Entities as well (though it's probably not what you're asking!).
