Yes it does, I mean for me .. Because when a user enters his password I want to verify the strength (ie : 6 characters, at least a numeric and different from user name). So when you use "password" as field name (in your add view), you will get it already hashed (in your controller $this->data['User']['password'], so impossible to check anything. Unless I missed something ... I had to change the field name to be avoid hashing..
