All you just sent relies on cookies being enabled.  There is a great new
function in cf called urlsessionformat
I had to add it to a new Ajax ecomm site I wrote after ie 8 came out and the
paranoid masses decided they should shop with private browsing enabled. For
some reason I never did figure out (session cookies are supposed to work in
private browsing ) when I wrapped every link with that function I stopped
having dropped sessions

 You *can*, but don't have to use url variables.  Appending url values to

I have

<cfapplication
name="sessionStorageTest" sessionManagement="true" loginStorage="session" />

the CFID and CFToken are still written to a cookie, but apparently, these
aren't used to uniquely identify a browser.

"With J2EE session management, ColdFusion uses a new variable, the
JSESSIONID, to track a user's browser session instead of CFID/CFTOKEN.
ColdFusion MX still creates the CFID and CFTOKEN values, however, but these
values are no longer used to uniquely identify browser sessions."

Now, a JSessionID value is written to the cookie also.  This, I assume, is
what is checked to maintain state.

So even with loginStorage="session" on the CFApplication tag, a value that
is in the cookie is responsible for state?  I am not seeing the benefit

IMHO the reason you use session is that not everyone enables cookies.  If
you use the session, then ...
