I'm relatively new to CakePHP. Before I knew about it, I built a
database "metadata" system that stored field information, lookup
values, labels, help strings, some validation, etc. for a large
database system. I'm surprised that there is nothing out there like
this for CakePHP. Am I missing it?

At the simplest level, does anyone have an elegant way to handle field
value lookups? If I have six fields in a table that use lookups, it
seems crazy to build and establish relationships to six additional
tables. It would make much more sense to have a master lookup table
with values keyed to the "working" tables and fields of the database.

Any help/insights would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Loren
