Avoid converting date/datetime fields to Cake/Time instances with CakePHP 3

First off, sorry for the "question spam". I'm just posting all issues of the last two weeks in a short period of time. I hope that this isn't disturbing anyone.

While trying to figure how to use combine with collections and entities (is in other thread) I didn't found an easy way to avoid date / datetime fields of DB been converted to Time instances.

$query->hydrate(false);

Didn't work, date / datetime field is also converted to a Cake/Time instance

There exists an easy way to avoid that conversion?

I was forced to do something like this in the collection to use combine or indexBy groupBy collection functions with date fields:

            ->each(function ($entity){
                $entity->dateStr = $entity->date->toDateString();
                return $entity;
            })
            ->combine('dateStr', 'id')
            ->indexBy('dateStr')
            ->GroupBy('dateStr')

Cheers.
