title: Why would I use a Kendo model instead of only using a transport/datasource
body: <p>I am currently looking at Kendo UI and was wandering what is the "advantage" of defining a model in my schema. It seems to work quite well without. Is this for binding reasons (i.e. column discovery for Grid control for example) ? Does it allow particular validations ?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
