No more use for StructFind() ?

For some reason I always forget about the one good use for StructFind(). (Thank goodness for old blog entries). Though it seems even that use is gone in ColdFusion 9. Can anyone think of another one?

<!--- Works in CF9, not CF8 --->
<cfoutput>
  #getSomeStructure()["dog"]# 
</cfoutput>

<cffunction name="getSomeStructure" returntype="struct">
 <cfset var myStruct = {} />
 <cfset myStruct.cat = "felix" />
 <cfset myStruct.dog = "clifford" />
 <cfreturn myStruct />
</cffunction>
