Maybe the core developers can reveal this mystery about type => 'INNER'

I haven't seen this documented any where.

And as you can see in the first link sent, I didn't work for me...and
there's no response. What did work, is a pseudo INNER join, which get's the
job done:

http://groups.google.com/group/cake-php/browse_thread/thread/77cc061717aafd0b/145ec0f124b9b75b?lnk=gst&q=inner+join#145ec0f124b9b75b
(funny, there are like 6 more responses to this that I can see in my email,
but not in the group)

Basically, you do a dummy hasOne bind and in your find do a condition:
"Where Dummy.id IS NOT NULL"...
