I'm 95% sure that's just for the cases where a user has installed the
cake (regular setup) inside the webroot directory for their server,
just to get the thing pointed at the cake application webroot.

In the web root you should have a different .htaccess:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
---- >> all that does is put the request into the value $url in the
index.php file. unless that url is found inside the webroot
directory.
As if instead of having "http://myserver.com/mycontroler/myaction/"; in
your browser, you had: "http://myserver.com/index.php?url=mycontroler/
myaction/".
Index.php Instantiates a class called Dispatcher, which it uses to
direct the request to your app's controllers.

I can't promise you anything for you, but for me, barring a few
hiccups here and there, this has been a good thing.
