The request shoud be irrelevant to the model. That's for the
controller to deal with. If you have model methods which are dependent
on request data (which, essentially, is what session vars are) just
pass them to your model methods from the controller.
If you've got a lot of params to send, consider using an associative
array, the way most everything else in Cake works.
