You do not have to unlock the session if you don't want to, so adding
that 'you MUST unlock' the session to the documentation would be
plain wrong. This doesn't mean though that you can't unlock the
session earlier if you want to in situations like your own.

What you really want is to say something to the effect that the session
by default will only be unlocked once all data has been flushed and
able to be sent to the client, but if you want to unlock it earlier you can
so long as you don't access the session object after that point.
