Well, we could even have #data default to being a Dictionary (but
configurable to use some other class), so that you could start out
doing

self session data at: #foo

and then migrate to

self session data foo

as necessary.  Except that I think I'd want to shorten that to

self sessionData foo.

Seem reasonable?
