I wouldn't do it as a list.

The concept of the CFIMPORT is that you are extending the tag space
(cross-reference how XML namespaces can extend the tagspace on the client
side).

You should be approaching it as though you are just writing new tags.  And
should use the currently accepted conventions for tags - i.e. <tagname
attributename="value"..... />

By using a list you then have to REMEMBER what the order needs to be.  The
"attributename" methodology is much safer and easier to maintain.  Your
parameters can be in and order and you can detect the presence (or
otherwise) inside the tag code.
