Yes, I now note this in the documentation.

The question remains, however: /why /does it work this way?

I should have noted that this is with Tomcat 7.0.23, but it seemed
unlikely to be JVM (Java 6 Update 29) or OS (Windows 7) specific.

Of course given that I found that the documentation clearly states this
behavior, I suspect this is longstanding Tomcat behavior.

My remaining question is /why/ Tomcat behaves this way.  If one quickly
restarts Tomcat for some reason and session data is preserved, you really
don't want all the users to have to login again do you?

When doing a graceful shutdown of Tomcat, the sessions are persisted to

Oddly, however, form-based authentication does not seem to survive a
graceful restart.  Rather one has to log in again.  Is this known?
  Intentional?  Configurable?

  There should be a template for messages on this list :
