I've seen this too.
It makes sense that if your application is written in CF, you hire someone
who knows CF, not just PHP (for example). IF you application is written in
CF/Fusebox, it's sensible to look for someone who knows Fusebox as well. I
do find it disturbing however, that some companies will not consider a great
CF developer just because they don't know Fusebox inside out.
On the other hard, some people who don't use and/or like Fusebox may have
caused certain companies to behave that way. I have seen great CF folks
(who are also non-fusebox people) march into a project and (because they
have a prejudice against FB) summarily declare that "all the Fusebox stuff
is crap, we're going to have to start over". This type of experience could
definitely lead a company to refuse to hire non-Fusebox people in the
future.
I doubt this is always the case, but in some cases I can tell you for sure
that it is.
