Yeah, I think this is one of those areas that should be labeled "Here
be dragons" because we're sort of assuming that something has
array-like behavior and/or struct-like behavior because under some
circumstances you can treat it like an array and/or a struct.

Unfortunately CFML has quite a few of these because it's been setup to
make the *mainstream* use case work even when that is not entirely
representative of 'correct' usage...
