/**
 * SessionModule provides access to Session object properties.
 * To get access to session properties use XPath syntax, e.g. to get the session
 * id use <code>'id'</code> as the attribute name.<br/>
 * More complex expressions with functions are also supported, e.g.:
 * <pre>
 * 'substring(id, 8)'
 * </pre>
 * will return the substring of id property of the session object.
 * <strong>NOTE:</strong> The module does not create a new session.
