Okay, someone smarter than me needs to add this to the Rails framework. It would be great if whenever a new session_id is created, the request object gets a "new_session?" attribute. This is kind-of like the ActiveRecord object and the "new_record?" attribute.
I know this could be accomplished by creating session variables, but I still think this is a more elegant solution. I just wish I was smart enough to pull it off
Thanks, Tom
