In order to integrate MediaWiki seamlessly with another PHP-based web applications it would be nice to be able to customize MediaWiki's session name---so that session information is easily accessible between MediaWiki and the application it's embedded in. Currently MediaWiki's session name is based on the database name (and table prefix if it exists) in Setup.php. I propose adding a new configuration setting, $wgSessionName, that can be set in LocalSettings.php to override the default name described above.
Created attachment 2032 [details] adds ability to specify custom session name with wgSessionName patches Setup.php and DefaultSettings.php
Option added in SVN trunk, r15312.
