Find using MongoId doens't work

RFC Ticket (pending) 

###What happened:

Model::find(new MongoId($string)) doesn't work.

This is the Posts Model
{{{
Posts extends \lithium\data\Model {
    protected $_meta = array('key' => '_id');
    protected $_schema = array(
        '_id' => array('type' => 'id'),
    );

}
}}}


This is the Comments Model
{{{
Comments extends \lithium\data\Model {
    protected $_meta = array('key' => '_id');
    protected $_schema = array(
        '_id' => array('type' => 'id'),
        'post_id' => array('type' => 'id'),
    );
}
}}}

If I try find comments using $post->_id it won't work because Model::find doesn't work with MongoId

{{{
$post = Post::find('4d9399a6f41c18bc08000004');
$comments = Comments::all(array('conditions' => array('post_id' => $post->_id))); 
// Does not work because $post->_id return a MongoId and Model::find doens't work with MongoId

$comments = Comments::all(array('conditions' => array('post_id' => (string) $post->_id))); 
// Now it works but Model::find() shouldn't work with MongoId by itself

}}}

The same happen with:

{{{

$comment = Comments::find('4d9399a6f41c18bc08000004');

$post = Posts::find($comment->post_id);
// Doesn't work because of the same problem
