I need to specify an order on a find('list') call and nothing I've
tried is working :-(

Is the new find() format documented anywhere? I can't even remember
where I learned about it. Can 'list' be ordered?

For the interested, here's the relevant hunk of model.php:

case 'list' :
        if (empty($query['fields'])) {
                $query['fields'] = array("{$this->alias}.{$this->primaryKey}",
"{$this->alias}.{$this->displayField}");
                $keyPath = "{n}.{$this->alias}.{$this->primaryKey}";
                $valuePath = "{n}.{$this->alias}.{$this->displayField}";
                $groupPath = null;
        } else {
                if (!is_array($query['fields'])) {
                        $query['fields'] = String::tokenize($query['fields']);
                }
                if (count($query['fields']) == 1) {
                        $keyPath = "{n}.{$this->alias}.{$this->primaryKey}";
                        $valuePath = '{n}.' . $query['fields'][0];
                        $groupPath = null;
                        $query['fields'] = 
array("{$this->alias}.{$this->primaryKey}",
$query['fields'][0]);
                } elseif (count($query['fields']) == 3) {
                        $keyPath = '{n}.' . $query['fields'][0];
                        $valuePath = '{n}.' . $query['fields'][1];
                        $groupPath = '{n}.' . $query['fields'][2];
                } else {
                        $keyPath = '{n}.' . $query['fields'][0];
                        $valuePath = '{n}.' . $query['fields'][1];
                        $groupPath = null;
                }
        }


Believe me, I've tried! If it's impossible, I can always re-order the
array when I get it. Or I could create a view in Postgres to keep any
selects to this table ordered the way I want (it's a lookup table,
basically, but order is important). But I'm curious is this can be
done directly.
