Description Andreas Tolfsen 2015-02-11 12:09:47 UTC 
When attempting to reuse an ended session you should get an error.  All commands called after `DELETE /session/{session_id}` or `DELETE /session/{session_id}/window` on the last window should should result in error responses.

The Selenium project uses the “NoSuchDriver” exception to indicate this and we don't seem to have any equivalent of that.  Maybe a “session expired” error or something similar would make sense?

I did a preliminary pass at this: https://github.com/w3c/webdriver/pull/9

Critique is welcome.
