O.k., now I'm confused.
1) Sessions are not created unless logged in.
2) Bots don't like the session id they're given.
From the above, I have to conclude the bots are logging in, which sounds
pretty ambitious, even for Google. If the bots aren't logging in, then
they won't have a session, so there's no need to filter out what isn't
there.
It's completely OT, but once a customer of mine has placed a
direct-login link to the public accessible test-system for the newest
project on a crawled site, so that google not only logged in, but also
deleted about 400 entries from the cms.
Everything imaginable happens somewhere...
