No need to go rushing towards ACL.

http://book.cakephp.org/view/1275/authorize

$this->Auth->authorize = 'controller'; is a very acceptable
configuration for authorisation, hence why it is probably the most
commonly used.

I find ACL overkill for most situations and many other people at
CakeFest felt the same, although in the interests of fairness, a lot
of people also confirmed they use ACL all the time.
