is 'Filter' a reserved word in Rails 2.1.0_RC1?

After checking out Rails v2.1.0_RC1 this is broken:

@filters = Filter.find(:all)

undefined method `find' for ActionController::Filters::Filter:Class

It works fine in the console but breaks in the view... any ideas?

Use ::Filter

There is an internatl ActionController class called filter, when ruby sees Filter inside a controller it's search algorithm dictates that the one it finds is the ActionController one. ::Filter means 'start at the top level' and so it will find your class.
