While the STDLib's pretty complete, some critical and must-be-secure parts are missing (I'm mainly thinking of sessions)

I think sessions are missing in the stdlib because Go is mostly geared towards servers and API servers than "web apps".

To be even fairer, a lot of languages do not have "sessions" builtin in the standard library, you can build that on top of cookies, which Go supports.
