You can get this functionality in Netbeans as described in this article from the bakery.

You can also do the same thing in Eclipse PDT or Aptana.

All of these IDEs are free. Although they are both
Updating
Now netbeans has a plugin for CakePHP.

I like Aptana too. The css editor is pretty nifty on Aptana too. The only editor I like better is Textmate. – jimiyash Jul 13 '09 at 09:43
It is not an IDE, but if you are a textmate user, then there is a bundle for CakePHP: http://thechaw.com/cakephp_tmbundle

Komodo Edit has a CakePHP addon and a macro to ease MVC navigation.
It is built on the Mozilla code base so is similarly extensible through addons, has equivalent memory consumption/speeds, and is licensed under the same terms.
Nearly forgot to mention, it is also cross-platform.

PHPed by Nusphere works great. They've even posted an excellent article to help get it all set up.
