No, in the real world companies invest in a technology for developing
web applications. JSP, .NET, CF, etc.I don't know of many real world
situations where an IT department develops in a different language for
each project. Buy completely different applications servers, IDEs per
project. That just wouldnt make sense when you consider employee skill
base, code reuse, standards, etc.

That being said if you are a CF shop, wouldn't it make sense to use a
UML tool that can generate ColdFusion?

Design before you build is not the same as developing for a certain platform.
