According to, http://book.cakephp.org/view/65/MVC-Class-Access-Within-Components
"To access/use a model in a component is not generally recommended; If you end up needing one, you'll need to instantiate your model class and use it manually." So, what is the recommended way if I have some data in component that i need to store? Only other way I could think of was to send this data back to controller which called the component and let controller store the data. But, then I will end up duplicating that code for almost every controller that uses this component.
