It seems to me that there is an underlying principle here that should be followed... Variables should always be set only within the context that they are used. If it is only used in one template, set it to the local scope. It seems that alot of people over-use the request scope when proper use of the attributes and caller scopes would suit just fine. Now I know that for CF coding, this sometimes doesn't amount to much, but think what would happen in any other language if everyone coded every variable in the global memory space. It seems that we may be regressing to earlier, less efficient coding methods.
Getting my 2 cents in for what it is worth.
