I guess we could have hash table in return_instance that gets 'consumer -> cookie' ?

return instance is freed after the consumers' return handlers are executed,
so there's no leak if some consumer gets unregistered before that

well they are meant to be exclusive, so there'd be no other non-session-consumer
