[hibernate-dev] Storing values at the session level

[Emmanuel Bernard]

Either this or have on the session owner contract a generic facility to store session specific data that OGM could extend. 
I think Steve has been reluctant of such contract in the past. We could re discuss the pluses and minuses. 

Another alternative is to use transactions as the payload transport. But the synchronization concept does not let you lookup for data outside the before and after tx events.
