While were talking about session advancement... has anyone ever thought of
adding shared sesssions? Consider the following scenario:
I have 3 sets of variables:
1. Global Scoped - Variables accessed and altered by anyone entering my
site. EG: a "currently online" array which stores the a list of active users
2. Logged in Scoped - Variables accessed by *anyone* logged in. EG: if
you cache the database stuff in a session then if one user updates the
cache the often you want all the logged in users to see that change without
having to requery the db
3. Individual Scope - Variables specific to this user (eg: whats my name,
my last ip, when did I last do anything meaningful).
Being able to split those scopes up into separate variables would be great
and being able to do something along the lines of:
$session->global = array of global variables
$session->loggedin = 2nd scope
$session->personal = personal variables
and then have the session module manage those 3 sessions individually.
In short - it would be cool if a script could (easily) have access to a
multitude of sessions and keep them segregated.
