Added quickstart 'sessionIdProblem' to show the problem.

After login click the button and take a look at your console to see the different session id's.

> While using a form based login with a security constraint in web.xml and killing the session on page start the value of 'WebSession.get().getId()' is not equal to '((ServletWebRequest) RequestCycle.get().getRequest()).getHttpServletRequest().getSession(false).getId()'.
> This is due to Tomcat's session fixation protection in Tomat 7.0.
> We implemented the following workaround:
> new HttpSessionStore() {
> public Session lookup(Request request) {
>    String sessionId = getSessionId(request, false);
>    LOG.debug("AbstractHttpSessionStore#lookup() [sessionId={}]", sessionId);
>    if (sessionId != null) {
>       WebRequest webRequest = toWebRequest(request);
>       Session session = (Session)getAttribute(webRequest, Session.SESSION_ATTRIBUTE_NAME);
>       
>       // it cannot be okay if the session id's are not equal!!!
>       if (null != session && !sessionId.equals(session.getId())) {
>          try {
>             Field f = Session.class.getDeclaredField("id");
>             f.setAccessible(true);
>             f.set(session, null); // it will be resolved later from the httpSession
>          } catch (Exception e) {
>             throw new IllegalStateException(e);
>          }
>       }
>       return session;
>    }
>    return null;
> }
> }
