I don't understand where I am reinventing something. If the session is in the url and a session is owned by someone then if someone else uses that url he will be logged in as the original user. This is confusing from many points of view. So ideally you should split the authentication part of the session from the state part and code in the url only the state part.
To put it in other words there is a public and private part of the session and since urls are mostly treated as public you should not use urls for the private part of the session.
This is a general remark. If you want to concentrate on CGI::Session then we can analyze if it fits to this kind of usage.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
