I hope that helps, but I fear that it won't, because sending the session like this will have no influence on the Drupal side. You should take a look at Drupal session handling, and see if it uses the same system as the built in php session handling (which appends a url query string when cookies are not available)
It seems to me that Drupal forces the use of session management through cookies.
It does, yes. There are many reasons for it. Primarily, it used to support GET-based sessions but it kept breaking and converting cookie-capable users to GET-based sessions. GET-based sessions are inherently less secure easier to hijack, less user friendly, and less Google-friendly. They're bad news all around. Non-cookie sessions were removed in, I think, Drupal 4.7.
As others have said, if Flash 8 is buggy, sounds like a perfect excuse to use Flash 9. :-)
