  I do not know why CI religiously avoids native session. I know many newbies who shun CI for other frameworks because of the use of cookies for storing session data. I am not saying or judging whether they are right or wrong. But I can vouch that adding this feature is only going to make CI vastly more popular.

  I actually just started writing a new plugin that acts the same as the native CI session library (same method names, parameters, and return values). It would be nice if CI just implemented this themselves and had a config for using database, cookie, or PHP style file sessions.

  See #353: Added Session driver with native PHP sessions and original-flavor CI cookie sessions - https://github.com/EllisLab/CodeIgniter/pull/353
