And in theory less data, right? a session ID doesn't need to store the kilobytes that cookies do.

- yalogin 13y agoWhy can't there be multiple sessions for different functionalities? I am not sure people are going to relinquish the cookie concept. All the sessions are doing is have the "cookies" transported as part of the HTTP message and not as a separate file (payload)
- jimktrains2 13y agoI'm not sure I understand you. I'm talking about a Session-ID header that'd have a 128bit (say) max length or something. Not something that has a few kb limit like a cookie. Also, a GET request wouldn't send a payload so I'm not sure what you mean.
