You could use a second cookie to track your purchased products. That
way you would not need to modify the jetspeed login process. Note
there is also a setting you can change a configuration value in
administration.xml to not create a new session upon login (if you want
to use the default jetspeed session):
<bean
id='org.apache.jetspeed.administration.PortalAuthenticationConfiguration'
class='org.apache.jetspeed.administration.PortalAuthenticationConfigurationImpl'>
<meta key="j2:cat" value="default" />
<!-- create new session upon authentication -->
<constructor-arg index='0'>
<value>true</value>

Im not sure if you have to modify anything. If you are using subsites,
you will stay within that subsite upon login
