Yes, but this app keeps the session ID in the URL, mostly to allow multiple
active sessions per browser.

The cookie is meant to provide a more convenient (for the user…) way to
identify a legitimate activation request. If there's no cookie present, the
user will have to login to complete the change of address.

Just what I was looking for, thanks!
