The file somecfml.cfm will get included before the page is processed, so basically
when using an include it is as if you are executing the whole template as one file.

Depending on how much code you are talking about running in the included file, you
might want to set local variables wherever possible that hold the data from session
variables you will be reading from or writing to. Once you have these all set you
could do another lock at the end of your page and write them back to the appropriate
session variables.
