I've seen it done to convert a site to CF without the necessity of duplicating all the files. The files can be edited directly and CFML added as needed. It is also done as a way to implement obscurity - to sheild users from seeing what technology is being used.

Please forgive me, as I am getting in on this thread at the very end more than likely, but I am confused as to why anyone would want CF to handle .htm or .html extentions. IIS is alot faster than what CF is, and it seems to me that the less of a load that CF has to handle is all the better.
