If you want to make HTTP stateful then you could fire up a single server for each user on a special port, and then shut that server down when the session is over. If every request went to the same server instance then it could keep state information between requests.

Obviously this is not a solution for a large website but if there is one part of your app that really needs this then it could be used - especially internally with few users.
