[Flow] TYPO3 Flow Session Management

[Christian Loock]

Look at this Bug report:
http://forge.typo3.org/issues/44202

According to a comment there:

The session is automatically resumed by the Bootstrap (calling resume())
and if that was successful, calling start() at a later stage will be a
noop. I'll add a description of that mechanism to the Script doc comment.


Anyways, if you read the docs, you will see that it discourages you to
handle your session by yourself. Instead you should just use the Object
Scope Session. Further Information about this can be found here:
