I'm not sure if there is a technical way to do this or not as it's the browser 
that saves the cookie based on the current URL.

The way I would do this is to not allow the user to create a session in one of 
them in the first place. ie, if they browse to blahblah.com then just redirect 
them to www.blahblah.com so that whenever they are interacting with the webapp.

I tried that, but it's not working.

I tried:
<Host name="blahblah.com">
  <Alias>www.blahblah.com</Alias>
</Host>

and I also tried:
<Host name="www.blahblah.com">
  <Alias>blahblah.com</Alias>
</Host>

Both ways, I still got a session cookie associated with the name the
user entered as the address.  If the user then changed the address to
www., it created a new session and session cookie (with the new name).
