The idea of something like req.get_session() is to give users an obvious way
to grab a session object without the deadlock concerns. How many times have
we seen this kind of problem-code on the mailing list?

do_stuff(req)

def do_stuff(req):
sess = Session.Session(req)
... do other stuff.
Having the session constructor check for the existence of req.session is of
no use here. We need a way to make sure only *one* session instance is
created per request. (Bonus marks for making it work with internal redirect).

Session.Session is not a constructor, just a function. But also, if it
were, I think this can be solved with the new object's __new__() ?
