i've played with bindModel and unbindModel and use them both in my app at the moment.
what i'm more looking for, is a way to define a function in my main app_model that will be able to loop through it's current associations. so, when I'm deactiviating a record I'll be able to cascade that deactivation to each of it's associated records. i'd like to be able to do this once in my app_model and not in each and every model. does that make sense? so, in an afterFilter if a deactivate action has been called I would like to check that models asssocations for dependent records and deactivate (or delete) them. is it possible? or am i not supposed to access the associations array?
