Hello

I posted this patch that brings mod_session support for mod_auth_basic
in trunk and 2.4.x
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=60708

Any comment on it? The motivation was to reduce the latency of Webdav
operation from Windows: using just HTTP basic authentication, each
request is first done without credentials, hits a HTTP 401 and then
succeeds with credentials. 

With the help of a session, all requests after initial HTTP basic
authentication have a session cookie and can succeed on first attempt,
saving one HTTP request/response.
