Ahh... I'd not bothered to go and look -- was just throwing an idea off the top of my head... You could of course create a recursive function to create a copy of the data minus the functions. It wouldn't be very efficient, although whether or not efficiency would be needed would depend a great deal on the frequency of serialization. Though in general serializing CFC's isn't a big selling point for me, so I'm not too focused on it.
