cfdump and structKeyList start garage band

When Macromedia made the custom tag, cfdump, into an actual coldfusion tag, we were grateful.  Well, here's something they should* add to the attributes of the tag: structKeyLoop="yes".  Here's a great way to spit out a structure that's simple and easy to read.  It's true... cfdump already does this, but if the structure is HUGE, the output can be daunting, and unreadable if your layout isn't accommodating.

          <hr />


     </cfloop>


</cfoutput>


It's simple, it's easy, and IT'S USEFUL!
