With the exception of situations where you'll need to manually edit the XML,
WDDX is the way to go.  Manually editing WDDX is about the most painful
experience known to man (except perhaps writing assembly code).

One neat trick with CFMX (or some third-party XSL tool) is that you can use
an XSL sheet to translate a human-manageable XML doc into WDDX for quick
deserialization into a CF (or other language) native variable.  I don't know
about the effeciency of such a setup, but I've used it a couple times on
low-access things (admin areas and such) and it's served my very well.
Totally a best-of-both-worlds solution.
