Well, PHP's session management will automatically fall back to putting 
session ID in the URL.  I believe JSP does this too.  Is there no way to 
get Rails to do likewise?

(I'm a lot less concerned about this than SpringFlowers seems to be, but 
some people really need or want to avoid cookies.  Since this problem 
was solved long since for other Web technologies, I'm a bit surprised 
that it is not so for Rails.)
