Cake PHP is leaps and bounds ahead of what I used to use, but I'd like to see... * Improved support for Search Engine Friendly URLs. There are many types of SEF, and while there are already published versions of a few of them, I'd like to see some core support, so that a new revision of Cake doesnt break them. Types of SEF support I'd like to see are: * SEF Slug additions. This is the one that usually gets used. The a search engine friendly slug is appended to the URL. i.e. /controller/view/1/my-content-title * SEF Slug replacements. This is were the id gets replaced with a SEF slug. i.e. /controller/view/my-content-title maps to /controller/view/1 * Virtual Paths. This is where a controller/action/id gets mapped to a virtual path. Probably the trickiest to do, and perhaps well beyond the scope of supporting in Cake Core. The path would be mapped to a controller/action/id on the way in, and links would be recognised and converted on the way out.
* Naming of helpers. Often, I need to overload the Form or HTML helper with custom actions, or additional actions. When I do this, I have a CustomFormHelper that extends the default FormHelper, but I then have to reference the newer helper via $customForm. Given that I'm extending FormHelper, and still have access to all of those functions provided to it, I'd like to specify that $form references CustomFormHelper. Downside of this is that the programmer becomes partially responsible for resolving for variable conflicts if they incorrectly name something, or have a helper in the app controller that conflicts with a helper name in the actual controller.
