hacking up wordpress, Joomla and drupal sites is really all you need in the PHP world though, these apps do almost everything most folks need, why pay $thousands to build something from scratch if you can get the same result from an off the shelf open source app in a few hours, even if customisation is required, it is still less time/cost and requires less skills as you can even automate the install and setup using Fantasico or Web Platform Installer. As much as I love CF, if I want to get something up quick, I will use one of those PHP apps most of time, Mura is great, but it still requires a lot more work and is lacking all the plugins and templates that the PHP solutions have. ColdFusion's advantage is most definitely in the enterprise, intranet, bespoke market.
