You are trying to alter a fundamental behaviour of pretty much any
routing system in a Model-View-Controller based framework.  If there
are any frameworks that behave exactly the way you need, I'd love to
see how they are doing it.

The default action for any controller is 'index', unless you configure
it otherwise.  It's a convention of the system.  If you set it to
'null', it's going to fall back to the rules of the system itself,
which says 'index' is the action and it will happily return the URL
with 'index' or whatever else is the default action in it.

When you ask it to give you the URL that represents the default action
for a controller, well, it's going to tell you whatever the convention
is or whatever you've told it you want it to be.  Don't want URL's
with 'index' in them?  Then you can't ask CakePHP to generate the URL
for you.  You'll have to do them by hand.

If I am wrong, I'm sure others are rubbing their hands in glee at a
chance to point out the mistakes of the Grumpy Old Man of the List.
