2088	abstract out the manner in which information about models is accessed, to allow experiments with different model definitions	shahbazc@…	Adrian Holovaty	"I would like to recommend that information about models be accessed through an abstracted set of functions, rather than directly querying the models file.

This will allow easier experiments with different ways models are handled.  I realize many people are opposed to model definitions being taken out of python code and into database, xml, other formats, but it will make it easier to do some interesting experiments."	enhancement	closed	Core (Other)		normal	invalid			Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
