“Treat spice model like footprint.”

And that’s why the model callout _should_ be embedded in the library symbol.

If I place OPA1652AID onto my schematic, I want it to pull in the SOIC-8 
footprint. CvPCB is to be avoided. For the same reason, why should I need to 
specify the SPICE model after placing a generic op-amp symbol on the board, 
when I can place an OPA1652 symbol and have it already know what model to use?
