I do like this approach better. It sort of conflicts with another
itch, but we can possibly iron out both itches in one shot. The other
itch is not being able to pass parameters into models that have
functional constructors. Would you be ok with the optional singleton
parameter being 4th in the method signature?
Controller::getModel($module, $model, $args=null, $means=null)
$means for lack of a better word, would be the 'getInstance' call
$args would be passed either in new Model($args) or Model::getInstance($args)
