Rails - Sep 2011 - Default Session Values

Hi

I am wondering if it is possible to have default session values set please? 
I have come across a post stating to add a before filter to the 
ApplicationController, however this seems a bit inefficient to me. I am 
looking for a more specific place to load up session variables where they 
will only be loaded once.

Thanks

Why set them at all? you could define methods such as

def session_feature_x
  session[:x] || ''default''
end
