Flash message persists over multiple views

Description

Calling controllers.get_flash() fails to clear the turbogearsflash/tg_flash cookie under certain conditions. Adding a ..]path? = '/' to the cookie used to clear the message solves the problem.

How about using cherrypy.session for this? I suppose we don't get around using cookies in one or the other form if we don't want to use ?SESSIONID=<uglyhash>.

We could insert this in dev.cfg: 

# If you want to use tg_flash() you _must_ uncomment this.
# Warning: Your app will require a cookie-enabled browser then!
# But as a benefit you get a global session via
# cherrypy.session (a dict) for free :)
#sessionFilter.on = True
#sessionFilter.cookieName = <appname>SID

Then tg_flash() could simply set/unset cherrypy.sessiontg_flash_msg?.
