Currently it's only possible to use a single session cookie, but it can be
useful in a multi-tenant application to use multiple session cookies.

Adding a new `get_cookie_name` or `get_cookie_params` method to the
`SessionMiddleware` class might be one way to implement this, which means
that you can then then use your own subclassed middleware to override it.

If this seems like a reasonable feature to add I'd be glad to supply a
patch.

Hi.

I'd likely think this too niche to justify the additional hooks.

Can I ask you to post to the DevelopersMailingList, which is a better
venue for these kind of feature requests than the ticket tracker here,
which gets far fewer eyes? If there's a general approval then we can
reopen. Thanks.
