you've encountered the problem described elsewhere in Stack Overflow (GWT MVP with Places & Activities - Where's the Model?) - the Activities & Places demo doesn't cover the Model component of MVP.

Whilst it feels wrong, I recommend store this model data instance in your ClientFactory, or have your ClientFactory provide a getModel() method. The data model return could include your global option.

Alternate strategies presented in the above article are for your 'disposable' activities actually obtain a persistent Presenter from the ClientFactory, or for your Activity to retrieve the data model on creation.
