It does sound like this is going to have some draw backs;
- double work load
- lack the automagic that makes cake so sweet
- its to installations of cake to upgrade
- and once completed is either going to require
- administrative procedures of copying files
- a great deal of bespoke customisation to the server (perhaps
aliasing the image folder)
either way it sounds like a lot of work; I see the appeal of having separate
admin/public sections to the site but not when using cake.
