Models within Modules
I''m taking a look at tackling the namespace pollution issues surrounding engines and plugins at the moment. I came across this ticket wherein Jeremy K. points out that the lack of an autoloading feature of models within modules is by design. For example: class TypoEngine::Category < ActiveRecord::Base; end will not be autoloaded if a controller, for example, were to reference it like so: @category = TypoEngine::Category.new What, exactly, is by design here? Is it a speed enhancement? It seems to make so much more sense from a best practices perspective...
