+/**
+ * Magic session class.
+ * This class is intended to extend the $_SESSION magic variable by providing an API hook
+ * to plug in other values.
+ *
+ * Primarily this is intended to provide a way of supplying "logged in user" details without touching the session
+ * (which can cause problems when accessed server side).
+ *
+ * If a value is present in the session then that value is returned, otherwise a plugin hook 'session:get', '$var' is called,
+ * where $var is the variable being requested.
+ *
+ * Setting values will store variables in the session in the normal way.
+ *
+ * LIMITATIONS: You can not access multidimensional arrays
+ *
+ * This is EXPERIMENTAL.
