Issue
- When a user leaves a Page idle in Edit mode for a long time, the session keeps extending itself indefinitely, and the user is never logged out.
Resolution
- This is the intended behavior because any of the incoming portlet requests (action, render, or resource) will reset the clock on the timeout.
- The Edit mode is built to keep sending these requests, thus keeping the session alive.
- This is because missing a session timeout would result in your work on the page being lost.
