In my app I require users to register with a valid email address,
which I send an email to with a link to a confirmation page. This page
checks the validity of the ticket (hash) embedded on the link and sets
a Validated flag on the user record. This works fine (although the
email looks a little ugly).

So I think I've done the "hard" part, but I'm unsure how to do the
"simple" bit.

How should I change the login functionality to check the user's
status? It currently checks the password using Auth out-of-the-box
functionality i.e. uses an empty login() function in the Users
controller.
Should I write a new login function from scratch or should I be adding
code to beforeFilter and somehow leveraging what is already working
(not sure how to mix my validation and error messages with cake/auth's
own)?

Thanks in advance,
Sid.
