No session identifier is generated at this point. This generation only
happens when there is no identifier presented by the client, or when you
explicitly regenerate it using something like session_regenerate_id().

Yes.

Are you sure you need a new session identifier?

I'd have to do some tests to find out, but you might want to set
$_SESSION to attay() rather than just unset it, but these might have
essentially the same behavior (e.g., memory is freed but not overwritten).

Hope that helps.
