I am not asking for extending autoloading (This should be a user list
question).
I want to point out that when autoload is invoked by sfController
the module name ("sfContext::getInstance()->getModuleName()") is not
yet
available and prevents me from going for a better separation by
writing a base action class for a particular module (here I mean
symfony module)
and putting it in that module's lib directory. And I doubt if this can
be solved by extending
autoloading - again, module name is not yet available.
