but I said that cookies_only should be enforced only after authentication. 
The same people that disable their cookies know too well how to reenable them before reading their email or usenet on yahoo, or managing their bank account.

Then why should everyone pay with a general downgrade in their privacy, just to mock a few and their false beleive to have an increased privacy from this?

IMO not even mentioning it is wrong.

I would like to know which other major scripting language allows any session propagation other than cookie. And which allows the creation of 'unpredictable' session ids provided by the user. Anyone has any insight with asp or coldfusion?
