I do think there would be a benefit to Adobe to offering a version of Coldfusion tailored to the budget shared hosting market... something with limitations on advanced functionality, but not as broken as the old "Express" version was.. you know.. something WITH advanced security options, but without things like event gateways, cfreport, etc
There are other reasons why nobody offers coldfusion in their budget packages too - it's not just the price of Coldfusion itself. Most large hosting companies put huge amounts of sites on their servers... You can throw a thousand php sites on a single server... you can't do that with coldfusion. Shared coldfusion hosting is a lot tougher to manage for all variety of reasons, and it takes a LOT more memory and CPU to run a servlet engine like Coldfusion/Jrun than it does to just have a couple of DLLs serving up php and ASP pages.
