In general, if you can't find a specific function that returns exactly what
you want, your best bet for these sorts of things is to use exception
handling to try something, and see if it works:
<cftry>
<cfcollection action="create" name="foo" ...>
<cfcatch>
... Collection already exists?
</cfcatch>
</cftry>
Of course, if there's any other reason why creating a collection might fail,
you'd need to account for that.
