MVC originated in desktop GUIs, originally for Smalltalk. Java Swing was, I believe, the first mainstream GUI framework which used it thoroughly. Most GUI frameworks since then are also MVC (or some derivative thereof, like MVVM in .NET). This is just a way of organizing code and has little to do with presence of absence of event handlers, or the web.

I didn't mean MVC so much, as message passing between the view and the model. Safe Rust has no problem with MVC nor its derivatives.
