RE: [cgiapp] logging in with CGI::Session and CGI::Application

["SR" <suppressed>]

    :more comprehensive and thus less flexible.  
    :Apache::Session doesn't set
    :cookies for you, track expiration times, or any other 
    :things.  It just:
    :-associates a unique id with a data structure
    :-persistantly stores said data structure
    :-recalls said data structure given the id again

If something is more comprehensive, people tend to think of it
as less flexible, and I aggree (most of the time). But this
shouldn't be the case with CGI::Session at all. It offers
the same flexibility (and even more) that Apache::Session does.

And reading and writing HTTP cookies is the feature of CGI::Session
one can make use of to condense the Perl code even more :-). You
still have to deal with such issues in CGI applications, so why
not have such utilities in the library itself ;-)
