What I mean is that post-1.4 it would be good to remove the defaultModel* stuff and other IModel dependencies from Component, and maybe try to move towards a more case-by-case model handling in generified (actually typed-after-their-default-model-type) components as well. > So all the getModel() (Link/FormComponent) are still there? I wouldn't mind trying to see if we could remove the magic currently done in get/setModel* in those too, and if model becomes a normal field in those (instead of an element stored in Component.data), open it to subclasses by making it protected and leave implementing a part of those methods to the users. Often it's better for the design to avoid using getters and setters. Some of the magic might work in the models themselves, for example making the component aware models... aware of the relevant components :) This might turn out not to be practical, and either way having the get/setModel* by default in the generified components is fine by me -- just thinking about different options, and whether they have relevance on what will go to 1.4.
