Les Hazlewood resolved SHIRO-83.
--------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

The cookie is enabled by default, but can now be turned off by setting the 
DefaultWebSessionManager.sessionIdCookieEnabled attribute to false.  Commit was 
accompanied by a DefaultWebSessionManagerTest case to verify functionality.

> Make sessionId cookie optional

> In rich-client applications (Ajax, Flex, etc), it is more secure to have the 
> rich-client framework explicitly send the session ID back to the server with 
> every request in its native/encrypted format, rather than via cookies, which 
> are more susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks.  GWT works this way as 
> well.
> Make it a configuration possibility to disable cookies entirely, supporting 
> this rich-client-over-http scenario.
