I don't think Zack dissolved at all. Despite Mako treatment, he was still a human. It's more like heavily altered people like the G and A copies seem to dissolve, at least some of them.
Doesn't everybody dissolve, when they re-enter the lifestream? But if I remember the end of CC correctly, "something else" happened to Zack.
Aerith didn't dissolve. Nor did President Shinra, and numerous NPCs in FFVII.
I suspected Zack did not go away "pyroflies" style shortly after his death. Would also be very inconvenient if a body always disappeared shortly after death. Also, if this was the case then EVERYBODY would accept the Study of Planet Life.
The way things look, Cloud's body will probably stay for a burial.
Zack's spirit got wings and feathers and all, but he still left behind a physical body. He died and Cloud buried him.
The only things that disappear in pyreflies of lifestream are Genesis Copies when they've mutated a lot, and the remnants of Sephiroth.
In ACC, Denzel asks if the place Zack died was a grave.
I like to think he's buried there, since its called a grave. He could've just used his hands and the Buster Sword to make a shallow grave and roll his body there.
And why would anyone else take his body?
I'd like to think that Angeal took him away. o_o
Or else, Zack flow away as a part of the Lifestream.

Hey, does only Kadaj (and Loz, Yazoo) dissapear that way just because they are like.. copied Sephiroths?
It's been a million years since I first saw that and I still sing it in the shower every day. <33 That's how much it wins.

When should Cloud have buried him? By the time he even remembers Zack, his body must've been partially decomposed already. And it didn't exaclty look like he made the grave right after Zack's death since he just walked away.
I love that song too, it's one of my favourites in the soundtrack. I agree that it represents Cloud well, and it makes me feel a little warm inside too. <3I really like the song, "Cloud Smiles." It really is a beautiful piece, and it represents Cloud well. I think the song deserves more popularity - I know that Aerith's theme, One Winged Angel, and Tifa's theme are pretty well known. At least, I think.
