might be just as easy to write your own custom method for this:
function generateNameList ()
{
$conditions = null;
$fields = 'id,first_name,last_name';
$people = $this->Person->findAll ($conditions, $fields);
$return = array();
foreach ($people as $person)
{
$return[$person['Person']['id'] =
$person['Person']['first_name'].' '.$person['Person']['last_name'];
}
return $return;
}
