MVC not suitable for webapps?

It is rare that you hear anybody question the suitability of MVC for the web, so cheers to <a href= "http://www.beblogging.com/blog/20020910-150241">Ugo and <a href= "http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-dev&m=102494541728419&w=2">Stephano for doing just that. I'm not saying that I agree with them, but I do like Stephano's point that MVC is not the end of the road in terms of webapp architecture.

Ugo says that webapps are based on a stateless protocol. That is true, but in practice essentially all webapps are stateful thanks to cookies and URL rewriting. So, saying MVC is not suitable for the web because webapps are stateless does not make sense to me.
