ive liked __session__ all along. Dan's concern is that people will
think __session__ returns the session which the instance is attached
to, not just the "contextual" session which may be different.
In my original proposal, i was going to just have __session__ just
return wahtever contextual session the developer wants, whether it be
associated with a class, with an instance, whatever; I cannot predict
what people might want to use it for. I guess your specific use
case does require that different instances reference a different
"contextual" session.
So what do you say Dan ? can we just leave it open ended ?

how about 'contextualsession' or something....I really dislike the

__session__ would probably be fine, unless you're afraid to conflict
with something else. We use __int__ to get ints out of an object,
__nonzero__ to get a boolean, and so on. Using __session__ looks like
a reasonable way to get a session out of an object.
also i dont understand how sticking a __call__() on SessionContext
would have any impact on its existing get/set/del operations.
Daniel was probably talking about SessionContext.current. It may
be nice, but I don't think this interface should be *enforced*
anywhere by SA (and I don't think Daniel is suggesting it either).
I'd also like to see instances being queried for sessions. Daniel's
implementation of current_session(obj) is currently doing lookups
on classes only. I've provided one potential implementation in a
message of this thread.
