XML backend instead of Relational DB backend

Hi,

I'm looking at the feasibility of CakePHP for a project i'm working
on. I've worked through the blog tutorial and it looks fine but
unfortunately in the production environment that i'm working i have to
use PHP 4.x.x and there is no database backend so I'm storing the data
in xml files.

So i'm wondering:

1. Does CakePHP support an XML backend out-of-the-box in the same way
that it supports relational DBs?
2. If it doesn't support it out of the box how much work is it to
modify it - Is it more hassle than it's worth (it's a quite small
project for which i would be using the CakePHP framework)
3. What would i have to look at extending?

From looking at the DOCS/API it doesn't look to me like there's out-of-
the-box support for this but i might be missing something.

Thanks.
