PHP5 and SESSIONs

[Madwacker]

I read or heard a long time ago when PHP 5 was still talk that the Zend crew was going to re-write how PHP handles SESSIONs to be more stable and easier to use. Did this happen?

Also a fellow php developer told me that he would like to see PHP allow objects in the session to validate against for registration, and multi-data collecting pages.

I see no mention of either of these things in reading around, and am just curuious about the topic.

I didn't hear about the earlier issue (didn't realise it was an issue). As far as "easy to use" it's a bit hard to go past:

session_start();
echo $_SESSION['session_var'];

As for objects in sessions....
