IIRC, ages ago when I used ASP pages there as an "Application" object which was basically identical to this concept. I seem to recall using it for configuration kinds of thing (db connections, etc). I have resorted to caching for similar needs in PHP, I think $_GLOBAL_SESSION would be welcome addition, perhaps even allowing for customs session handlers similar to the $_SESSION now for multi-processor environments and other unique setup problems.
