I think this is related to the controller, and you need to implement something like Multivalidatable (see: http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/multivalidatablebehavior-using-many-validation-rulesets-per-model)
I have this in my user_controller to deal with login, registration and signup, which require different levels of validation. In my case, I was having some problems with the Multivalidatable behavior on one of my hosts, so I ended up coding the logic inside the controller (basically pulled the behavior back into the controller).
