Bug description:  Would come handy: session_abort()

What happens to a session when a script gets aborted? I don't believe there
can be a one-shot solution for all situations, and I can easily imagine
that one would want to keep the session data, but doesn't want to save
anything changed _just_now_ (similar to a transaction rollback).

A function session_abort() or session_reset() could do just this - abort
any open session without modifying the session storage. Having such
methods one could decide in a registered shutdown function how to
proceed.

session_abort()
Works similar to session_write_close() except that it doesn't store
session data

session_reset()
Rereads the $_SESSION superglobal from stored session data, destroying any
modifications so far. The session remains open.

Thanks for consideration (possibly in 4.3?),
Ernest
