Sorry, I made a mistake. For validating cookie entries it is best to use at least:
/^([^\t]+\t){6}[^\t]+$/
There was not enough space for me to put in the rationale for not using persistent storage with
cookies but it should be obvious. It's YAGNI for most scenarios. In this case at best it
complicate things, at the worst you perform an operation using the wrong cookie session. It can also
increase the chance of failure, waste resources, reduce performance and create mess in the file
system.
The plus of persistent is that In some cases it may be used to accelerate across processes but not
many people actually need that and when they do there tend to be better options such as using
memcached.
If someone can edit and merge the comments it would be appreciated.
