Ya Grant not to argue with you, but if you are going to make a statement like that, you make me think you have not done much cake programming. (Though for how long you've been around I'll assume otherwise)
I need data from the session in the models all the time. It's usually a modified_by or created_by type of thing. Sometimes its other things, like enclosing shopping cart abilities into a model and component. Cake is meant to make tasks simple and isolated so you don't have to repeat yourself. If you can't enclose this type of thing into a behavior, then what good is cake? Not accessing this data from within a model really defeats the DRY principal.
