To date, thrift has always behaved session-less, i.e. there's no way to
correlate information between two API calls and know they are from the same
"client". This is quite limiting in terms of interface design.

That's not the case. We store our correlation as so called SessionID that the
calls carry around. Its just one item of not too much data and it works like a
charm. Correlating calls is (at least) one level above Thrift, and not having
it built-in is by no means limiting. What would really be limiting: If Thrift
would force me to use it. With tzhe current design I have all the flexibility
in the world.

> Key: THRIFT-3979
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3979
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Story
> Components: Wish List
> Affects Versions: 0.9.3
> Reporter: Xiaoshuang LU
>
> Sometimes, customers wanna put some options (username, password, id, etc.) in
> each request and response. And these options ought to be transparent for
> applications.
> Unfortunately, thrift protocol does not have good extensibility for extra
> functionalities. I would like to propose the following solution to address
> this issue.
> 1. TMessage adds a new field called "options"
> 2. customers set "options"
> 3. TExtendedBinaryProtocol writes "options" when "writeMessageBegin" invoked
> 4. TExtendedBinaryProtocol reads "options" when "readMessageBegin" invoked
