[ic] mv_no_session idea (best of both worlds)

How about setting in catalog.cfg:

ScratchDefault mv_no_session 1
ScratchDefault mv_no_session_id 1

and at the very end of BOTTOM_TEMPLATE:

[tmpn name="mv_no_session"][/tmpn]

That would mean ?id= is never appended to the URL if the browser
accepts cookies, not even on the first page.  Also, browsers which
don't accept cookies don't seem to have ?id= appended to the URL until
they add something to the cart.

The only downside I can think of is a new session is created for every
access from a browser that doesn't accept cookie, until they add
something to their cart.  From a marketing perspective though, it's
much better.
