>From sysprefs.sql:  ('timeout','12000000',NULL,'Inactivity timeout for cookies
authentication (in seconds)','Integer'),
>From C4/Auth.pm:  my $timeout = C4::Context->preference('timeout') || 600;
Some googling results: 
The default in PHP is 1440 seconds (24 minutes).
30 minutes (=1800 secs) is the default expiration time of a cookie.

This patch proposes to lower 12 million to 1d (one day). The perfect balance
between usability and security??
Also note that we are talking about a session cookie. So end of session always
means end of game.

Who offers less ?
And what about changing current values? [Starting with: If it is null or the 12
million secs, change it.]
