Personally, this is the problem I have with the lack of documentation:

CakePHP was somewhat intimidating for me to get started with. With that
said, I have done a few simple apps, an make-shift CMS that serves my
purpose, and just general fudging around with stuff and trying to get things
working.

However, I'm never sure whether I'm doing things the "right" way. To be
honest, all this MVC stuff was brand new to me by the time I started. This
is why I've been hesitant to submit articles to the bakery, for example.
Since a lot of my stuff, can be considered patchwork, I wouldn't want to
mislead people searching for "official" solutions on the bakery (and even
Official Docs). That's why I usually keep my ramblings on my own blog.

I can't help but feel that I'm not the only one who feels that way. What
would "qualify" one to be able to contribute to the Official Cake
documentation or the Bakery?

Just My 2 cents.

PS:
 - The API is a great resource as is, but it can be HEAVILY improved by just
placing a few (well a whole lot) of examples for some of the more difficult
functions. $form->input() any one? I tend to get lost in the MANY uses of
options arrays.
 - I've found some hidden treasures in: http://bin.cakephp.org/saved. The
pagination on that page doesn't work though. I didn't find a category to
report it under in trac.
