[TYPO3-dev] Sessions and the "fe_typo_user" cookie

[Arjen Hoekema]

Goodmorning list,

After taking a closer look at "moc_varnish" I discovered that they have 
an XClassed version of the "tslib_feUserAuth" object which provides the 
desired functionality.

It sets the "dontSetCookie" flag to "TRUE" by default and writes the 
session cookie when:
- Users are authenticated
- When a call to "storeSessionData" was made

This can give a great performance boost for websites behind a reverse 
proxy setup. It would be great if something like this could make it to core.

Grtz,

Arjen Hoekema
