The Request scope was added to CF mainly to allow variables to 
be easily passed to custom tags. 

The only two differences I can think of between Request.var and 
Variables.var is that Request.var is accessible within all custom 
tags called within the same request, and Variables.var can be used 
without a scope since CF first looks in the Variables scope if a var 
has no specified scope. Probably not much else to say about 
Request scope, except that it can be very handy...
