181 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
182 throw warnings for two reasons:
183 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
184 -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance
186 2) you call a component resolution method with a string, and it resorts to a regexp
187 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
188 method with a regex as the argument
