Figured out more. I believe the problem with not being able to fetch
data from the session is related to the fact that the GWT browser
launches with localhost as the default url... i then map mysite to my
loop back address(via /etc/hosts)... so when authentication succeeds
the user gets routed back to my localhost via mysite address... even
though i am only testing locally... the problem is... that somehow the
session is tied to the domain name. when i start a session from
mysite.com:8080 and have all subsequent callbacks and navigation off
of mysite.com... the session storage works and i am able to
authenticate and fetch the user data with the authenticated token.
Long story short... the session state is somehow tied to the domain
name, so be careful when going from localhost to something else
(probably for the callback from twitter)
