Could be very expensive to loop through every existing session for
every login process, don't you think? But that depends on your
expectations.

I guess the other way around seems to be the much more useful way:
storing the session_id to the userprofile in database.

Saving the sessions themselves in the database (e.g. with
sfPDOSessionStorage) you are able to establish relations between those
two tables and adding a foreign key constraint like onDelete SET NULL
you can make use of the session garbage collector of php to get your
data cleaned up without any additional effort. Anyway, if your
concerne is about point "4. He forgot to logout", garbage collection
will hopefully destroy the session for you.

Maybe we try to identify what your exact need is, before we propose
solutions for some problems that should be seen from a different
angle?
