You sound jaded.  :)  I am setting up my clusters to use session
replication because sticky sessions wreak havoc on my load balancing
distribution.  We have a heavily-used internal site with a very small
number of unique users (around 300 right now) and very long average
session lengths (8 hour working day).  Somehow everyone always gets
stuck on one server and I am tired of that.

Besides, even if session replication is only good in your eyes for
failover, shouldn't it at least work when it fails over???

Why are so many people so excited about this? Session replication is
not needed on the vast majority of sites - it just causes network
chatter and it still has latency so if a session does failover due a
server going down, you might still get a request into a new server
instance before the session data is available.

How many people are actually using replication and what is your
justification for it?
