Hi Stankov :)
See this https://github.com/RStankov/backbone-bind-to/blob/master/src/backbone_bind_to.coffee#L21

Looks like when I call bindTo more than once like:

this.bindTo(this.model.myCollection, "reset", "render");
this.bindTo(this.model.myOtherCollection, "reset", "render");

it will clean up all the _binded values, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Also I've used your library but with little modifications as they were naturally useful in my own case, you can take a look on the raw javascript (sorry, didn't had enough time to get them back to coffee) at this link:

https://gist.github.com/4215860

in general:

• bindTo supports functions for handlers, not only strings
• unbindAllOnRemove method for removing any binds to an object on remove, just a helper
• unbindAll method for the logic to unbind all handlers to current _binded array as well as from the model / collection
• lastly a dirty hack to execute the plugin in window context, as I'm using browserify for asset pipelines which includes every single file in its own CommonJS-like scope.

Hope that helps. Your plugin works quite well, now we have no leaks or strange side effects. Credits to follow ;)

Great work - Thanks for making this available! One small detail... the comments say "Backbone Handlebars" instead of "Backbone BindTo". Didn't seem worth forking, but worth mentioning.

Cheers,
