Sorry for this *late* response.
Noticed this mail while searching the ML archive just now. I missed it. :-(

But the loadbalancing is already implenteed. I dont see why it shouldn't be
used as loadbalancer if the functionality exists?
load-balance != session-sticky, is it? At least it depends on the mechanism
of LBer.
I don't want to use one place for all sessions, like a file share or
something in that direction. Im thinking about creating
a Header that is called X-Backend: (a|b|c|d). This could be used to check
what backend the user should use. Its really not
a nice way to do it but its a way of doing it.
IIRC, HAproxy use Cookie insertion just like what you said to do
Cookie-based LB.
Is there any idea that I could create a ticket for a feature like this?
Maybe?
And, have you got any solution?
Maybe, you could try nginx or haproxy.
Good luck.

Hi,
I got a question regarding the Directors in varnish vcl. If user A is
logging in to http://mywebsite.com and the website is using varnish
(with directors) in front of 4 backend servers. The 4 backend servers is
identical.
User A is logging in and hits server 1. He then goes to his profile and
hits server 2. The server 2 doesn't know that user A is logged
and redirect him to some Not logged in-page.
Is there any way for varnish to lookup which server that user A should be
directed to? Some kind of Sticky Session function?
IMHO, Varnish is for caching, rather than for redirecting.
Maybe you could consider HAProxy, or pound, or IPVS, or
similar implementation.
Besides, I know that sessions can be shared.
