Why would you want this?
It is quite dangerous!

If you want, u can save sessions into db using session_encode(), session_decode() and other session-related funcs.
By rewritting the 'load', 'save' and garbage collecting functions, U can have a session never expire 🙂, if u can recognize a user.

See http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-set-save-handler.php for more info
