One is to just go ahead and cram the ID into $_SESSION as well, when you get the username, with one more field in the query. The other is to just write another query to look up the ID. One is easier on your $_SESSION array/storage size/needs/performance. The second is easier on your raw database query count. Which is really better depends on the rest of your architecture, and your own hardware/software, more than any absolute statement we could make. -- Some people have a gift link here.
