Yeah, that's crap.  Ask to speak with a manager if they tell you that
again.  SeeFusion lets you exclude URL substrings.  Here is a quote from
the configuration interface:

'A space-delimited list of URL substrings to ignore for this rule.
For example, to exclude "longreport.cfm" and all files in the
"/batchjobs/" folder, type:
longreport.cfm /batchjobs/'

Well, I guess cflocation would work just as well.  For some reason I was
thinking it would be part of the same request, but actually you are
correct in saying it returns a 302 (temporary redirect) to the browser,
and then the browser makes a second http request for to the new
location.  

As far as the directories not being created first... I don't know if you
would have any problems with that.  Sometimes the cffile tag will quit
executing but the file system is still finishing copying the file.  Some
times waiting for a few seconds BEFORE doing the redirect is enough time
for it to be there.

Actually, what I have done in the past here is dirty, but quick.
Everytime you go to write a new file, just do a cfdirectory to get a
list of all the files/directories, use a query of queries to filter out
ones older than a day, and then delete them.  That way it cleans itself
every time it is used.  Of course, that approach does assume that there
is fairly regular traffic, since it would only clean up every time it
was used.

That does eliminate the need for scheduled tasks and such.
