Isn't that what custom tag paths and cf server mappings are for?
(asside from cfc discovery) ... when you call the tag it has access to
all the scopes, so if it's executed within an application, whether it
uses application.cfc or the cfapplication tag, it can reference
#application.applicationname# just like any other template. The
mapping in conjunction with cfmodule or cfimport would give you less
ambiguity and thereby decrease the likelyhood of namespace conflicts
with templates in the directory containing the calling template.
