yeah you're right. except that you're missing a key point.
you've already got that unique identifier. it's the username. the
username will stay unique visit to visit, therefore you don't need to go
against the design of the session id. the session id is not meant to
keep uniqueness across multiple visits, only the current visit.
are we/me misunderstanding you?
