When deleting a server folder, the Session information is lost in the next reload...

I've included an attach that is a simple webform with 3 buttons a textBox and a label.
the textbox is used to name a certain folder.
The create button creates it, and the delete button deletes it. The reload is used to display a count of session variables in use. The session has one variable initialized in the create event.

Steps to Reproduce
To reproduce, copy this project, install it and create a "tmp" folder in the root of the application with write permissions for the aspnet account used to run the application. Then, try this:

type a name in the textbox, press create and check if the folder was in fact created. hit reload. You should now see a "1" . Then hit reload again (just to check :) ). Then hit delete, check if it was in fact deleted, and hit reload. You should still see a "1". Now hit reload again. Magically, the "1" is now a "0", indicating that the session variable has been cleared...
Actual Results
Magically, the "1" is now a "0", indicating that the session variable has been cleared...
Expected Results
The session variable should remain intact...

Deleting a folder in the root of an application restarts the app, and assuming you're using InProc mode, restarting the app will cause session state to go away.
