Just remember, you can very easily repopulate the data in session on every login. If there is no login authentication done, you can use filters to confirm if the required data exists and if not repopulate them as required. You don't need to know if session expires just if the data still exists and if not repopulate into session which is very easy to do using symfony filters.
