Unfortunately, that's making the assumption that either the filename won't be renamed (which yes, is unlikely) or the file will not move (this could happen easily within the life of the app). It's not that big of a deal for CF because it just recompiles. It would suck if it lost it's permissions because then you'd have to go reassign them again.
