<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-addon">@</span>^^^^ This part of the input
group is NOT a part of the form element thus as a best compromise I
would put it in a separate helper method with options - so something
like
$this->Form->inputGroup([class=>'input-group-addon', 'text'=>'@']);
$this->Form->input('field',[moreoptions]);
but then IMHO it is plain abuse of CPU cycles
