That's not a dumb question, Keith.

AFAIK, CakePHP expects to have the core available to it at all times,
and the core expects calls and routing via the MVC.  Even the plugins,
behaviors, components, and other 3rd party extended code is doing just
that, extending Cake classes.

I haven't tried it, but I don't believe you can use parts of CakePHP
outside of a Cake environment.  CakePHP is a full-stack framework
implementation and tightly coupled.  eZ Components is more like the
Zend Framework in that you can pick and choose pieces you'd want to
use to help you get *certain* things done.  CakePHP and Symfony both
help you get *everything* done.  Therefore, it's very important to
pick and choose the proper framework for your specific project/task.
