Re: v1.3 App::Objects not finding controllers in app/controllers/subfolders

Because Cake doesn't follow the Zend/PEAR class naming convention, the
only way to make subfolders work, really, is by manually adding each
subfolder's path with App::build. Because class and file names don't
match up and don't follow a pattern, there's no 'regular' Cake class
name/path and hence no way for the core to know if you're adding
subfolders.

To be honest I'd love it if the Cake classes followed the Zend
convention and used underlines in class names to represents
subfolders. Then instead of having a "controllers/
users_controller.php" file for the UsersController class, we'd have
"controller/users.php" with the "Controller_Users" class. Then
subfolders would be a kick in the pants - "controller/user/group.php"
for Controller_User_Group, etc. But that's just my wishful
thinking. ;)
