There is no other way to do it except via Autoload or some other 
routine called as a result of a page transaction.

I can tell you that in the 8 years this session method has been around,
no one has expressed the need before.

As for setting a default source, it would seem to me to be better
done in whatever code you are using that with.

	$Session->{source} ||= 'mydefault';
