Sean,
Because Macromedia are looking at cfeclipse as the new tool for development,
and when that happens then I would imagine we would swap from homesite /
dreamwaever to this when MM have released it.
Now based on that, if the unit testing was to check for variables in extends
and cfargument I would agree. But why flag a warning for valid component
paths such as CreateObject('component','#compath#.system.security') doesn't
make sense to me because its very valid. As is <cfmodule
template="#templatePath#\module\module" and I don't think this should be a
warning at all.

If you don't use CFEclipse, why do you even care what constructs the
tool flags as bad practice?
Personally, I like the idea that CFEclipse would flag variables in
component paths as a warning. You can't use variables in extends= (or
cfargument type=) so there's a consistency argument here as well.
Lint style tools generally flag lots of things that some people think
are just fine. The only way to make a comprehensive tool that suits
everyone is to flag everything that is even vaguely suspicious and let
people choose to switch warnings off.
Warnings don't mean "WRONG" they just mean "caution: check this manually".
