Research direction

Start in angular-sails-bind.js and reproduce the PUT update from another browser window while inspecting the logged section shown in the issue. Done means submitting model changes no longer produces the “undefined is not a function” error on the front end.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The model collection seems to be initing just fine. However, when I use another browser window to PUT changes to the model, the moment I submit those changes I get this error on the front end of the app...
undefinederror

I'm logging out the section of angular-sails-bind.js that is erring out.
console

Seems like I'm almost there, but updates is breaking the front end.
