http://yourapp/foos/bar/id:1/ will not work when Cake is expecting http://yourapp/foos/bar/1
Cake doesn't know the name of your function variables (I don't even think there's a way to determine that in PHP). So it wouldn't know that the 'id' named param is supposed to be the first argument in FoosController::bar($id, [$var2, $var3...]). If you want to use named parameters, then you need to define a custom route and tell CakePHP to pass the named parameters to the action and the order to pass them in. Otherwise, you'll have to use $this->passedArgs['id'] in the action.
