You know what they say about assuming... ;-) One of the features under consideration for AR System 7.5.00 is a mechanism whereby a user either closing the browser or exiting all AR System powered applications (e.g. by entering a URL into the browser that does not connect to AR System) will release their token after an admin-configurable amount of time that is significantly less than the current floating user license timeout. It is our expectation that with this mechanism, the license token could be released within minutes of the browser close or URL change rather than the hour(s) that it could take currently. -David J.

I just saw that there are two defects (see RFE 10471) that mention this issue and have a status of "pending" and "under consideration" (version listed is 6.3), so I'm assuming BMC still hasn't made up its mind or taken any action.
