well kind of ... the users should get their "old" customization back
once they are logged in
this is the easy part, I just have to load the pickled session from
the db (I guess), but my question is how to store it properly
if I store the session information on logout is not enough
I would like to store it as soon as data is written to the session
object, but I am not sure how to overwrite the session object for that
I see a _try_store_in_db() and _try_store_on_disk() in the session
object, are these function called when the session variables change?

I guess this would be a nice addition to the session object in general
e.g.
session.auth_presist
everything that is written to the auth_presist object of the session
will be stored in the auth_user table along with the user information
and whenever the user logges in the auth_presist object is recovered
