I''ve just created a patch that adds a component generator which can be used to generate stubs for a new model or a new controller inside the components/ directory. See http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/1981 I''d really appreciate your feedback and/or updates as there still are a few issues I''ve been unable so sort out.
