So, given a sessionID, I have need to read and write the session stored
information 'manually', from _outside_ an actual Rails
request/controller.

Readers, I know your first response may be to tell me I don't really
want to do that. Trust me though, I really do, it makes sense for me in
my case.

I know this wouldn't work if you're using the new cookie session storage
mechanism. But if you're using a server-side session storage mechanism,
I'm thinking there must be some reasonable way to do this.  But I'm
having trouble figuring it out.

I've tried looking through the rails source code to see how Rails reads
and write session, but I'm having trouble finding the relevant code. I
also figured, gee, since Rails allows pluggable session storage
architecture, there must be an abstract description of what a session
store must implement, and how to access it, and that might help me --
but I couldn't find that either.

Anyone have any ideas or tips?  I'd like a
session-storage-implementation-agnostic (assuming it's a server-side
method of storage) way to read and write the session hash from outside a
Rails controller.
