+// acquiring sd.sessionMutex, while other session methods (SetAuthenticated,
+// SetIDToken, Save) write the same map under that lock. A SessionData can be
+// returned to the object pool (Clear -> returnToPoolSafely) and reused by
+// another goroutine while the original caller still mutates it, so concurrent
+// lock-free map writes could occur. Run under -race: this failed on the old
+// code (concurrent map writes), passes now.
