Doing those tasks inside model seemed messy way to it. We have multiple models accessing portions of the data.
Thought i showed quite clearly what this is upto :) So we have a text search engine, every snippet of text can have multiple boolean type of modes, such as: removed and verified along others. Texts are in UTF8 because some is in normal latin1 charset, some are russian or japanese. Therefore we have a field for romanised text (normal alphabetic). That data is searched, used, and modified by multiple different models, using slightly different criterias. There is 3 different models currently utilizing this component in a way or an another. Every one of those models uses that component differently, to output completely different things, from the same data.
