I'm completely unfamiliar with how you've done it all along, but it seems a little bit scary to rely on a global variable defined in another file - would it be safer to shift this to a method like fetchDefinedComponents() that returns an array of components? I can see the potential for some poor bugger out in userland picking $components as a variable name; and having PHP compat "secretly" change it...
Actually $components is not a global variable, because it's only included inside a function. This could only ever affect a user if they included Components.php directly, which is pointless. Thanks for taking a look though, Arpad
