I'm going to reject this for sessions; as Jan said it's done for prefs so
I'm resolving the ticket. I see a number of problems with falling back to
local sessions:

- The user will be confused by the notice - they don't know/care what the
session handler is (I know, just don't issue the notice, this isn't the
only thing).

- People use db-backed sessions for a reason - usually with clusters,
where file-based sessions would result in random logouts as the user
eventually hits a different webserver. I don't think that'd be an
improvement.
