Re: Loading components from actions

No, it does not work for components that take use of startup()
shutdown() or initialize()

Sure, there will be worse bottlenecks, but why not solve this one now
instead of later?

I have created a ComponentLoaderComponent that will do my bidding for
the meantime.

I am assuming cake has no built in commands to load components on run-
time then. I have created a ticket for this.

Thanks for your help (*not being sarcastic)
