Re: 3.0: a peek into CakePHP's future

I suppose the larger point is this: right now, most web apps require two separate frameworks: server-side and client-side. While the name itself, CakePHP, implies what its focus is, maybe it's worth considering including some more Javascript utilities, so that AJAXy web apps can follow Cake conventions, and both halves can be integrated more tightly.

The current plan that Jose and I have discussed is to return objects from the Models/Repo/Table objects. (The name isn't decided yet).  This fixes many of the data format issues and also mostly makes afterFind irrelevant which is nice.

We've also removed containable in name but mainlined it in spirit. Instead of being a separate behavior controlling joins is part of the query builder.

What parts of SecurityComponent are hard for ajax applications? I don't think there will be a way to use the form tampering prevention with ajax forms, however it is already possible to protect those forms from CSRF issues with re-usable CSRF tokens.

If you're reworking the model layer, I think the most important things are:

1) Harmonizing the format that data and associated data is save in and returned in. Right now, it's all over the map, and is sometimes hard to keep straight.

2) Allowing for a smoother way to filter models by their associated models; having to write joins is kind of a pain.

In addition, a smoother way of using AJAX with the Security component to help accomodate the growing trend of JS based web apps.
