147 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
148 throw warnings for two reasons:
149 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
150 -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance

153 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
154 method with a regex as the argument
