Thanks everyone.

existingSession() seems pointless in my case, as it will always return null for 
these actions, because there is no way for the callers to identify an existing 
session.

I'm currently experimenting with stateless components. I didn't really look at 
this from the perspective of the response components. In addition to that, I 
needed to eliminate several session() references in my DA actions, but those 
were mostly just logging the session ID to help determine where all those 
sessions came from ;-)

So far it looks good, now running in staging environment.

Thanks again
Maik
