I'm running the latest version of Cake 2, and using the Miles Johns 
Uploader Plugin. Works great so far, though I don't feel confident I set it 
up correctly. But that aside, let's move on.

In my Controller, when I either add or edit a row, I upload the users 
selected file.

Here's just a snippet of the code I'm using in my controller:

App::import('Vendor', 'Uploader.Uploader');
     $this->Uploader = new Uploader(array(
          'name' => 'formatFileName', // Name of the function to use to 
format filenames
  'uploadDir' => '/files/'
      ));

$data = $this->Uploader->upload($this->data['Upload']['file']);

Now, in bootstrap.php, I have the following function:

function formatFileName($name, $field, $file) {
echo "hello";
return md5($name);
}

However, the filename of the uploaded file is always the original file name.

Again, I've loaded the plugin in bootstrap with the following code:

CakePlugin::load('Uploader');

I've created a upload table in the DB, baked a controller and model for it, 
but I'm saving the filename, path, size, and so on to that table. Looks 
like the following:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `uploads` (
  `id` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `qarequest_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `name` varchar(200) NOT NULL,
  `type` varchar(200) NOT NULL,
  `size` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `filesize` varchar(200) NOT NULL,
  `ext` varchar(200) NOT NULL,
  `group` varchar(200) NOT NULL,
  `custom_name` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `path` varchar(200) NOT NULL,
  `uploaded` datetime NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB  DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=35 ;

Let me know if I need to supply any other information, thanks all!
