Currently we have this trick in our local client where a new $self$ reference created. However It sounds ok to me to say that you can only talk to things with an SCA binding. If you want to talk to something without an sca binding then add binding.sca to the component in question or add a proxy component to the domain to allow you to do it. Does that make the client API too awkward to use? Simon
