The token is not part of any URL exposed to the user in that way. It's part
of REST requests made internally by JavaScript. You're not going to
bookmark or see a session token unless you go out of your way to do so and
open up dev tools.

The concern that a token may be inadvertently logged by a proxy is a valid
one, though, and we should look into changes to the REST services that
would allow the token to be provided through a header. I think the main
difficulty there would be with WebSocket, which lacks an API for setting
headers.
