Yes, this could work. However, you can never get ALL sessions. Depending how the client process was terminated, the onClose trigger may or may not be received. With CLIENT/SERVER you will never be able to get all cases. Therefore, setting a reasonable session timeout, you can guarantee that your container's GC will remove the sessions.
