I think this is where you're getting hung up. Django doesn't "detect"
a "missing" cookie; Django sees a request from a browser that doesn't
include a cookie. Nothing's missing; it's just a new browser without a
cookie.

To Django, there's *no difference* between a user browsing a site
until his cookie expires then coming back, and the same user browsing
until the cookie expires and then a *second* user visiting without a
cookie. There's no "I used to have a cookie but now I don't" header;
there's either a session cookie, or there isn't.

Huuuze, I can appreciate that this is an infuriating aspect of HTTP --
statelessness is a real bitch sometimes. But you need to accept that
you're asking the impossible here and move on.
