The idea is that you store all the information required for application init (such as app name and timeout, session timeout etc) in an external file, so if you need to change it for any reason you can do so without modifying the code - it also helps with app reuse because you can use the same application multiple times, just by changing the config file. Obviously, you need things like the app name before you use the <cfapplication>, and before this point there is no "application scope" where you can persist the data. As such, you *must* get the data out of the config file (be it properties, serialised WDDX etc) before you can initialise the application.
