I suppose it would, but then we run into the problem (as others have said already) of trying to use this type of set up in shared environments or distributed applications that are no longer under our control. While the article you sent has some good information, it also has everything in a subdirectory. If you remember the little demo password protection scheme I showed you at Powered by Detroit, I had everything in a subdirectory, and it worked wonderfully. While trying to document how it works, I set everything up in the root of a new site, and now I'm stuck, since it's impossible to extend the root application.cfc because of the way the extends attribute searches for CFCs. It first looks in it's current directory (and finds itself and throws an error about not being able to extend itself), and *then* looks in other folders... At this point I'm completely stuck...
