New to Cake.  When using scaffolding on a model, everything works
perfectly.  Except for the "related" display on a view page.  It seems
like for related models scaffolding only does a simple query instead
of using joins to display the information.

I am working on an app that organizes information about television
stations and media markets.  A media market is a geographic area that
has many stations.

When I view a market, I see a related list of all of the stations,
however they look like this:

Market:
ID 550
Name Atlanta

Related Stations:
ID // Market_ID // Station // Affiliation_ID
1  // 550 // WXIA // 3
2 // 550 // WSB // 1
3 // 550 // WGCL // 2

etc

When you actually view WXIA (one of the stations above) the view
correctly translates that Market_ID:
ID //  1
Market // Atlanta
Station // WXIA
Affiliation // NBC

To my knowledge all of the models are set up correctly since they work
on their own, they just don't automagically translate that foreign key
into a displayField in the related view of scaffolding.  I'm more than
willing to bake and write my own code, I just need some guidance.
When I'm in the view for the market, and I have a market ID or an
Affiliation ID, how do I requery that information to display Atlanta
instead of 550, or NBC instead of "3".

If anyone needs anything additional I'd be glad to provide it.  Thanks.
