Does anyone have thoughts on doing a popup window (new browser window) vs.
an application-modal JavaScript dialog for the timeout message? (the message
warns user that session is about to time out, with option to extend the
session).

It's important (in this situation) that users see the message, so overlay
doesn't work well. Popup window looks friendlier than JavaScript dialog, but
may be blocked by popup blockers.

One option might be to show popup first, then if no response show the
JavaScript dialog right before the session expires.
