Well, I'll try. I spent sometime looking at django.contrib.session.backends.* The session is created in a 'lazy' fashion. In particular, db.py's load() method creates the record (and thus the key) as a side effect of the attempt to access a session record. It appears (untested) to be enough to reference "soap.request.session" to trigger the creation. I'm guessing this is to reduce accidental/incidental creation of meaningless session records.
