I can't speak for Charlie, but here's a simple example:
Picture a handful of components that all extend a utility cfc - which
has some basic methods to init a user/log message structure and
subsequently append to it. Each child method wants to call the utility
method to add more info to the message, with one of the arguments being
the method's own name. Hard coding the name of the method within each of
those calls can be tedious.

Maybe there is another way...

I tried to get an answer for this one - with regard to "traditional"
ACF - a year or more ago.
It had to do with my automatic error message generation, also a cfm
page of mine which could register all the methods in all the cfc's of
a directory - and spit out a dynamic form to test each one from my
browser.
I can't remember if it was the Adobe forums or not. I remember getting
some incomprehensible explanation why this was a crazy thing to want
or need to ever do, because of proper encapsulation and design or some
such thing. A simple "it's not possible" would have been nice...
Good luck. Let me/us know what you find.

Hello,
Is it possible to get the function name of the cffunction which is
being called?
For example:
<cffunction name="returnMyName" access="public" returntype="any"
output="no">
<cfreturn #me.name#>
</cffunction>
Thanks,
Charlie
