    Tutorial - Sessions

    Storing session data in CherryPy applications is very easy: cherrypy
    provides a dictionary called "session" that represents the session
    data for the current user. If you use RAM based sessions, you can store
    any kind of object into that dictionary; otherwise, you are limited to
    objects that can be pickled.
