Yeah, that's the reason I first thought about using it. But, as the example demonstrates, when I try to adjust the session value within a callback (some calculation done in background thread triggers it) then the stored value isn't saved. Traced the issue to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2139659/access-session-within-rails-controller-thread and the fact that background processing is done in a separate thread. Tried to find a workaround, but it seems to be too much hassle. If you have an elegant suggestion, I'm all ears :-)
