Description
Sessions were expiring mid-sentence. Idle timeout only slid forward on
HTTP requests, so typing or scrolling (no requests sent) looked idle and
users got logged out mid-form.
Adds a global session controller, mixed into all admin pages:
and pings /admin/api/session-check on a cadence based on the session
lifetime. Programmatic scroll doesn't count, only wheel/touchmove.
Only clicking it extends the session.
active tab shows the warning.
so a stale "Session Expired" dialog in tab B wouldn't close after
signing in on tab A. Sign-in now broadcasts to sibling tabs.
Frontend only, no API/DB changes. Exposes the existing
PERMANENT_SESSION_LIFETIME via one Jinja attribute. Notification poller
(#343) untouched.
Not included: request recovery after expiry, draft autosave.
How to Test
Set SESSION_LIFETIME=120 in .env, restart, revert before merge.
