Hi John,

There's usually no need for this, as the controller knows which the
main model is. From the API
$this->modelClass
"This controller's primary model class name, the
Inflector::classify()'ed version of the controller's $name property.
Example: For a controller named 'Comments', the modelClass would be 'Comment'"
So you can do the following in AppController.
$this->{$this->modelClass}->save();
