Hi, I just found that if you save objects other than simple primitive values (int, str, numbers, etc), but a dict, or perhaps other class instances into session, and if you changed members of them, you have to manually call session.save() before finish processing the request. I checked the Session.py source code, and found that unless you update the session like "session[xxx] = xxx" or "del session[xxx]", the session won't get 'dirty'. That is, "session[xxx][xxx] = xxx" or "session[xxx].xxx = xxx" won't mark the session 'dirty', thus it won't be saved. This is OK for me, however, if my understand is correct, I suggest to add a line in the document to explain this, so user won't be confused.
