It's used by a lot of stuff, like CFFORM, CFWDDX, RDS, CFC browsing, the admin API, charting, probably some other stuff I've forgotten. > Which also begs the question - is there some functionality > that relies on the /cfdocs mapping? No. And, as an aside, that isn't "begging the question". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begging_the_question > The thing about needing /CFIDE that strikes me a odd is that > it contains the CF Administrator application, so that the > Administrator becomes accessible from every web site on the > server.

Changing this would add significant complexity to what is already a relatively complex process. I would like to see it happen automatically as well, but I'm not sure how it could be done, to be perfectly honest. There are some processes which are easier to do manually, and I think this is one of them.
