I went to a session at MAX on it that Sarge taught and they basically
said not to use it.  It's a good idea but in the current standing of it,
there are just too many problems and it's really made for the average
Joe who doesn't need anything complex and hasn't already written their
own.  It doesn't sound as if MM is putting a lot of effort into it or
really desire to expand the functionality of it.

I've been a big fan of it - but the current release of CF has some
issues with it. If you use Session-based CFLOGIN security, there is a
security risk. It is not safe to use in production. If you use cookie
based CFLOGIN security, you have to jump through hoops if you want to
tie the CFLOGIN scope to the Session scope. Not impossible, just not
terribly easy. If you search my blog you will see numerous posts on it.
Sarge (I forget his blog) also has more blog posts on the security
issue.
