implication (if any) for CF applications is still unclear to me.
I notice that in CF5, the CFCOOKIE tag permits you to specify a path, while
CFAPPLICATION does not. It would seem that if you've a application.cfm file
located in a certain subdirectory (in relationship to the site root), that
you might want to set the path to that subdirectly. But again, I don't fully
understand the implications of path or its affect when you have multiple cf
apps residing on the same site where CF sets path=/ for all its client
cookies.
