Internal error invoking find()->last() on empty table.

Hi,
Currently, find()->last() causes an Internal Error.
I discussed a bit of the subject wirth Admad who consider it as 'normal'.
I don't really agree with him.
'Internal error' means a critical situation.
But empty table is a 'normal' situation.
If there is no first record, there is no last record either.
If first() doesn't causes an Internal error, last() shouldn't cause it either.
I suggest that last() just returns null, as first() do, if we invoke it on empty table.

And if we look at this doc http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14261/collection_method.htm, calling FIRST or LAST on empty collection should just return null so, why to not do like that in Cake?

I too disagree with my previous opinion 😛
