I think components still make the most reusable choice for things like

I throw all my utility type functions into one cfc and call the correct

still has the desired affect of doing xyz. These don't change often so

However, my secondary concern is that we do not have a process for sharing
code in-house so I could see whatever method I choose turning into a sort of

If that is the case, I would recommend making it a custom tag and sticking

+1 to making it a custom tag in the server's default custom tag
directory.
Definitely a custom tag or a
cfc seem like overkill.
