Yes, it does work. Thanks very much. I was not aware session.flash was
internally managed.
session.flash can be overridden
def test1():
session.flash='redirect from test1()'
session.msg1='overriding session.flash from test1()'
redirect(URL(r=request, f='test2'))
def test2():
if session.msg1:
response.flash=session.msg1
del session.msg1
return dict()
