Hi,

There is a session property in the user object (even anonymous) but it seems that all session operations are carried through assignment to the $_SESSION array.

I was wondering if I miss some API function to use the $user->session.

I understand that access through the $user object is a way to change sessions of *other* users but I couldn't see any function doing so and if there are any support function in core to unserialise, change, serialise, save into the $user->session column.

At this moment I really don't need to change the session content of other users... so it looks like that accessing the $_SESSION array is what I need, but it doesn't make me feel comfort to see there are not homogeneous path to access the same stuff and I'm wondering if it is a sign I miss something.

thanks
