Joerg,

I am not expert, but while preparing patch; especially in 'session()' 
and 'cache()' functions; it's not so easy to mark some fields as mutable 
as we could do it in daily C++. Since CppCMS is trying to keep ABI 
stability; it uses pimpl idiom nearly everywhere. And it needs good 
amount of work for refactoring to support mutable in proper way.

(I guess, sort of)

Regards,
Nazim.
