Description:
------------
It would be very useful to have session_destroy() 
optionally take a session id as a parameter.

This would be useful for people who want to help 
prevent hijacked sessions by using 
session_regenerate_id(). A subsequent call to 
session_destroy([previous session id]) would keep 
hijackers from using the old session file, and is much 
simpler than trying to unlink the file manually.

I came up with a solution here since the php developers don't see a need for this: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=24096

There's that option in session_regenerate_id() now since PHP 5.1.
