Thats a very bad default. It anything it should be using htpasswd as a  
default. SessionStore is an optimization only for the largest of sites  
where updating the password file becomes a concurrency issue. No one  
else should ever use it, period. I would make it use htpasswd (with  
conf/passwd as the file) at initenv, and then make it so if you blank  
the config value for the backend it disables the form.
