There is a performance difference associated with changing that setting, which is why it's set to the default value it is. At least with it set the way it is, it becomes obviously very quickly that something needs to be changed in order to work correctly. If it defaulted to the other, most people may never know that they're running slower than they need to (if they're not multihomed, that is). Just my opinion.
There's an enhancement request open for the ability to specify whether you're multihomed or not during installation. It's #49199. I've added your vote to the request, Ben. And last but not least, as for the documentation for this issue, it's listed in the top 10 at http://www.macromedia.com/support/programs/self/coldfusion.html, it's in the list on the installation page at http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/installation.html and it's also in the list on the testing & troubleshooting page at http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/troubleshoot.html. If you think it should be listed somewhere else within the ColdFusion Support Center, just let me know.

This has got to be the #1 asked question on this list. Macromedia should default the webserver for multihomed configuration (maybe there's a speed/performance issue) or at least modify their installation GUI to add an option for it. Or at least in the support centre a "top ten installation questions" area... (maybe there is...site is too big).
