I'd agree that you need supporting modules for session handling
when writing plain old CGI programs, but in fact then session
is trivial.

We have to keep some 50_000 sessions around 24/7, and
this is done using mostly Apache + CGI. (I really wish I had some
of Ada's tasking comfort at times, though. Experiments
still ongoing.)
