That's probably not a good idea... as you would no longer be able to use
inheritance nor specify return/argument types (if they are a cfc-type)
A mapping is a good way... some people store ALL their CFCs for all
applications in one directory like com.applicationName.componentX, so
they only have one (if any) mapping to deal with. This also allows you
to store your CFC's outside your web root.

Set it as a variable.
<cfscript>
set request.compentPath = catalog.model;
</cfscript>
Then Call #request.compentPath#.description and you have a portable
application...
(But you will need to make sure that your request sets are called)
Note: create a preference file that holds all of your global variables
like
this ..that way you can make many changes (ie colors, datasources
ect..)
