Let’s say I have a

<button type="button" data-bind="click: actions.remove">×</button>

and a handler

var actions = {
    remove: function(item) {
        ?array?.remove(item); // ?array? is a containing array, accessed somehow
    }
}

How do I find ?array? so I can use the same button in any foreach binding?

Clarification:
I know how to do that if I put remove into the view model. However the view model contains hierarchical arrays and I do not really want to go through it all just to get methods in the right places. View model is also updated from server occasionally with the help of ko.mapping, but that does not add any methods to the new data. That is why I implemented the handlers separately.
