Guillermo Iguaran 166dbaa752 Remove ActiveModel dependency from ActionPack
ActiveModel is used in ActionPack for ActiveModel::Naming for a few,
mostly optional aspects of ActionPack related to automatically converting
an ActiveModel compliant object into a key for params and routing. It uses
only three methods of ActiveModel (ActiveModel::Naming.route_key,
ActiveModel::Naming.singular_route_key and ActiveModel::Naming.param_key).

# The record identifier encapsulates a number of naming conventions for dealing with records, like Active Records or
# pretty much any other model type that has an id. These patterns are then used to try elevate the view actions to
# a higher logical level.

# # view
# <%= div_for(post) do %> <div id="post_45" class="post">
# <%= post.body %> What a wonderful world!

# def update
# post = Post.find(params[:id])
# post.update_attributes(params[:post])
#
# redirect_to(post) # Calls polymorphic_url(post) which in turn calls post_url(post)
# end

# As the example above shows, you can stop caring to a large extent what the actual id of the post is.
# You just know that one is being assigned and that the subsequent calls in redirect_to expect that
# same naming convention and allows you to write less code if you follow it.

# you should write a helper like 'person_record_from_dom_id' that will extract the key either based
# on the default implementation (which just joins all key attributes with '_') or on your own
# overwritten version of the method. By default, this implementation passes the key string through a
# method that replaces all characters that are invalid inside DOM ids, with valid ones. You need to
# make sure yourself that your dom ids are valid, in case you overwrite this method.
