I wish it was so.
Cisco pretends to do this, but is not entirely successful. When setting up a router for the first time, you still have to figure out which network class your IP network is, and subtract subnet bits from that. (If you use the setup dialogue. It saves time otherwise)
ie. Subnet bits: 8 != cidr /8
This can sometimes be annoying. (every time I forget, it's annoying. :-)
We still use CIDR for anything else, including IP address delegation for the customers of the company where I work.
Oh, well.
