It's not quite that bad.  If a jvmRoute is configured for the <Engine>,
its value is appended to the randomly generated session id to make it
unique across servers with a common front end.  Although normally used
for load balancing, there's nothing that prevents setting the jvmRoute
attribute in any Tomcat instance, even standalone instances.
