It's no problem for a hosting company that can open the CFAdministrator. I set up a mapping for all the sites on my system as a matter of routine when they sign up. I can set up other mappings too if they want, but I set up a mapping to the root of their site, with their domainname as the name of the mapping.
And if you set up one on your dev machine that points to the same location in your dev environment, it should work on both without changing code. That's how I do all my sites, and they work identically on my laptop, on my dev machine, on the staging site, and on production. It just makes so many things easier if you have a coldfusion mapping.
