This is not the point.
The point is in having sessions that are not used for authentication.
I have just finished to write a version of guard that *do not* use
sessions for anonymous users.
This means that for dealing for an e-commerce application I have to
create a specialized session.
Hopefully I would like to do:
def BasketSession(Session):
def __init__(self, ...):
Session.__init__(self, ...)
self.basket = []
