Yes this is a feature. When your child circuits do not have an application.cfm CF will traverse through the directories and use the the one at the top level.

Also, say that there is NO application.cfm in webroot/parent/child/ but there IS in webroot/parent/. It seems that any request to a page in webroot/parent/child/ will "reach up" and run application.cfm in the webroot/parent/ directory.
