Where, exactly, did you have the php.ini file that you modified? Is this the main server php.ini file, or a custom file in a directory?
(although since it still recognized the manager login I don’t think that would be the problem in any case)
See my edit above.
The only php.ini session saves I’ve altered are for the web user, so the one at the public_html level and the one under the weblogin snippet.
I also tried adding it to the manager/media/browser/mcpuk/connections/php/ directory in an act of desperation but nothing altered.

You don’t need it in the weblogin snippet’s directory; it’s only needed where a .php file is executed from, and that’s in the root and in /manager, since everything else is included and run via the index.php files in those two directories.
I’m setting up a local dev installation to see what I can see...
Ahhhh, it’s not in /manager.
I’ll move a copy of it in there now and let you know.
Oh dear, well I didn’t break the website, but I have some error messages instead of a manager window. Looks like a clash with config.inc.php:

...that’s breaking into new territory of I really have no clue how to fix this...
Okay, even with just that one line in my php.ini file to alter the session save path, MODx manager login was throwing up those error messages.
So, I removed php.ini and added this just before the StartCMSSession call in manager/includes/config.inc.php
session_save_path("/sesstmp");
...and that didn’t work either. It’s still saying the folder doesn’t exist. Is my syntax wrong? Error message says:
session_start() [function.session-start]: open(/sesstmp/sess_tuvejlj81hrm1tursnaqofqbn3, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in /home8/ecl/public_html/manager/includes/config.inc.php on line 63

Try putting the set_session_path inside that function, just before its session_start() function call.
session_name($site_sessionname);
session_save_path('/full/path/to/session/files');
session_start();
