I was thinking the same thing Nate, but I didn't have time to test.  I was almost ceratain that one of our older production applications did this.

I guess I don't get the question because you can use url vars in an included
template just fine.  Not that you would want to.

test.cfm :
-------------------------------------------------------------
url param  is : <cfinclude template=" testinclude.cfm">
-------------------------------------------------------------

testinclude.cfm :
-------------------------------------------------------------
<cfparam name="url.param" default="none!">
<cfoutput>#url.param#</cfoutput>
-------------------------------------------------------------

now execute :     test.cfm  and  test.cfm?param=hello

The form and url scopes are available similar to the request scope.  You'll
see it works just fine.  Again, I wouldn't suggest it, its ugly and
difficult to manage / trace.  =)

What would the business case for doing something like this be?
