So, yeah, I think 30 - 60 seconds for the login timeout makes sense. Does anybody feel strongly that it should be configurable? Is it typical for a client UI to hold open the connection while waiting for the user to supply a new password? (In which case a longer timeout makes sense, to give the user time to respond).
