I'm using Ember 1.13.3 (latest one as of 2015-07-16).

I have a component defined this way:

```
import Ember from 'ember';

export default Ember.Component.extend({
  tagName: 'li',
  yow: 'argh',
});

```

It's corresponding hbs is simple (the default):

```
{{yield}}

```

I use the component this way (in my application.hbs):

```
{{#side-menuitem name='medium' current=selectedMenuItem clicked='menuItemSelected'}}
  {{#link-to name}}Hey you ... {{yow}}{{/link-to}}
{{/side-menuitem}}

```

I'm expectint to see a link with label: Hey you ... argh.
But I get: Hey you ... (without argh).

There's a similar thread here: [Accessing component scope within template block](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28013503/accessing-component-scope-within-template-block)

I tried also: {{view.yow}} and {{component.yow}}, no luck.
Looks like Ember 1.13 (still) has this behavior: The block format specifically drops you out of the component scope and into the parent scope, there isn't any available link from the parent scope into the component due to the isolation level.

This is undesirable..., and I somehow I thought that behavior has been changed in 1.13 (toward compatibility with 2.0), but I'm not seeing it (or I thought wrong?).

How to get around this without messing up with the (parent) controller?

Thanks,
Raka
