Variables (of some form) does exist and is usable:
<cfcomponent>
<cffunction name="OnRequestStart">
<cfset Apple = "Apple"/>
<cfset Request.Ball = "Ball"/>
<cfset Variables.Camel = "Camel"/>
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="OnRequest">
<cfdump var="#Apple#"/>
<cfdump var="#Request#"/>
<cfdump var="#Variables#"/>
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
This all worked.
The Variables in the third dump contained both Apple and Camel.
