Can you include in the commit log a link to the BZ describing this
problem? It helps *immensely* when trying to trace things months/years

A totally naive question: do we want to only allow "/system"? or
'anything except "/session"'?

ACK once the BZ link is included in the commit log (and pending my
question about whether we want to check for == "/session" or != "/system").
