While not a true solution, here's a hack of sorts that might suit your
needs....  You could set your default filename to something uncommon (eg.
"guessThis.cfm") that simply sets a SESSION var or an URL var and redirects
the user to "index.cfm" (or whatever the current default filename is).
Existence of the variable would suggest that the user tried accessing the
site without specifying a filename.

Like I said, it's a hack, but perhaps it'll do for you.
