Adrian,
Merging all CSS and JS into a single download is done all the time in
the ASP.NET world. I think this would be considered a best-practice
for Web-site programming. You should be able to keep the .css
extension on the original file and cfinclude it into the cfm file.
This is easier to pull off in ASP.NET thanks to the powerful Visual
Studio IDE.

In .NET Web sites the file that bundles all these linked resources
together is named "WebResouce.axd." You will see this if you view
source on the Microsoft.com home page. So if you want to read about
pitfalls with this technique, it is probably well documented on the
MSDN Web site or by googling WebResource.axd.
