I wouldn't put a random session_start() in places like this.

I'm not sure what you mean by restarting a session or what 'indeed
has been closed'
btw, your pack and unpack aren't really needed. All you have to do
is in your __destruct() function is put something like:
$_SESSION['cmsSessionArray'][__CLASSNAME__] = $this;
And when you pull it out of the session:
$obj = $_SESSION['cmsSessionArray']['someClass'];
You'll have an instance of that class; you're really causing more
work than needed.
