Sorry for sending two mails, the mailing list does not allow attachments. ;)

Your question is perfectly valid and especially for smaller websites
super relevant because a working session ID approach out of the box is
simply perfect for them. I just wanted to mention the ticket thingy
because the topics are tightly bound to each other. It does not answer
your question nor do I want to invalidate it. :)
