Why is Devise's “current_user” not available at the model layer?
Question
There are many posts about Devise and the lack of availability of "current_user" for use in models. There are numerous work arounds posted here and elsewhere. However, i haven't found the answer to "why" in any of the posts. Is this a security issue? If not, why?

Because you don't have access to a session variable inside a model, it's not a Devise issue or something related to security. It's related to the MVC pattern used in Rails.
