Re: Is there a lighter weight alternative to requestAction?

Change the way your app is designed.

When a page gets called you have some ways to identify that page through the url controller class + action that was called.

If your blocks know on what page they should render you could have a single method in a model that you can call in AppController::beforeRender() that will fetch all the required blocks and set them to the views.

everything to custom helpers and used models (with custom model

Congratulations for totally breaking a MVC framework...
