This isn't working for me on Org-8.0 (from that Worg page):

#+begin_src python :session
def foo(x):
  if x>0:
    return x+1
  else:
    return x-1

foo(1)
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:
: None

I tend to agree. I don't/haven't used Python, but having now read the
ob-doc-python bit, it seems peculiar/undesirable to have to change
indenting, line breaking, and return statements depending on :session or
not...
