Thinking about it another time you're right. So what the patch offers is
all we can do. However having the session id available somehow would make
the the patch usefull. Perhaps it is enough to pass the url which should
be available at that time so an extension can find out the session id
throug it. Maybe it would be best to simply pass the sapi_globals_struct.
