Are you sure about this? From what I can see, you can pass a cookie name to
ProxyPass when using mod_proxy_balancer and it will do sticky sessions.
ProxyPass / balancer://ramonOne/seaside/wbv6/$1 stickysession=_s
ProxyPassReverse / balancer://ramonOne/seaside/wbv6/$1
Though, now I'm fighting a bug with cookies and infinite redirects because I
have to enable session cookie to get this to work. I saw this discussed,
but I think the recent proposed hack doesn't take into account a basepath of
/ when running behind Apache.
