I have a database organized to do automatic versioning of entries.  My
table looks like this:

`id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
`itemid` varchar(5) NOT NULL,
`revision` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,
...


That being said, `id` is not used for anything in the application
itself, but only for Database tasks.  The `itemid` field is the field
I wish to use for selecting the item, with the understanding that I
select the entry with the most recent revision.  I have no issues
writing the SQL for this, but where I get lost is how I would set up
CakePHP to retrieve this.  For example, if I have an entry

`id` = 5,
`itemid` = "AAAAA",
`revision` = 2,
...

I want the URL to look like this:

http://example.com/items/view/AAAAA

and not http://example.com/items/view/5.

Is this at all possible?  The Database is from a legacy application
from which we are migrating, which precludes me modifying its
structure (at first, anyway.)  Any help here is greatly appreciated.
