Print starts a new session

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Access some page where a cookie-based login is required (SSL is a plus).
2. Call .Print()
3. Watch the login page being printed because you've been redirected!

- What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expected to see the page printed.

- Please provide any additional information below.

My test page was a ASP.NET MVC application using Forms Authentication 
(cookie-based). Also, you have to be logged to access any page. If I call 
.Print() method on the WebKitBrowser, it'll start a new connection for it (or 
at least a new session), destroying the session ID I have - then, redirected to 
the login page, it'll print it.

Nevermind, I forgot to check r112. I didn't test here, but by looking the code 
it looks like this might be fixed.

One think that I noticed now: saving the file might not be enough. Consider 
that you have a complex document with relative paths, like "/foo/jquery.js": it 
won't work because you can't include that file. So documents will need full 
path on all included files.

I know that prinitng is a bit buggy because I was unable to implement the 
WebKit method for printing. I will find a way to download all needed files to 
the temp folder but this might also work as expected, since for the log in 
cookies are also important.
