[TYPO3-mvc] session handling

[Stig Nørgaard Færch]

This is my new favourite newsgroup! :-)

Anyway, I'm currently creating a new extension with both a FE plugin and 
BE module.

What is the preferered way to store a state?

Currently I use setAndSaveSessionData and getSessionData to store a 
session. But are there smarter ways with Extbase?

if($this->request->hasArgument('personListFilter')) {
     $personListFilter = $this->request->getArgument('personListFilter');
     $GLOBALS['BE_USER']->setAndSaveSessionData('personListFilter', 
$personListFilter);
} else {
     $personListFilter = 
$GLOBALS['BE_USER']->getSessionData('personListFilter');
     $personListFilter = $personListFilter ? $personListFilter : 
'notProcessed';
}
