Re: Containable Behaviour

I don't think containable will do this for you. Supplying additional
conditions to containments only further restricts the associations of
the initial find. Currently your code is doing the following

find all DealerAddresses in region 64. For each DealerAddress you
found only return the related DealerBranchAddress' if its region is
64.

Containable will only limit the related models found on the initial
find. Not perform additional reverse lookups.
hope that helps.
