Sorry, I'm new to Cake and was a bit confused. I was echoing the debug
inside the controller that the ajax call uses. The only two fields that are
being used in that controller are 'password' and 'confirm_password' ... only
'confirm_password' is displayed with the debug.

Up until now I never thought to try to run the debug in the add() controller
and when I did the entire form was in fact displayed in the array.

Now I'm just plain confused ;)
