Could add code in the button's GotFocus event too I guess.
I'd set up your hit tracking in the biz layer (track the last hit timestamp whenever a biz operation results in changing a field value), and then run a timer in the UI layer that fires every couple minutes (or whatever your threshold is, perhaps defined bizobj by bizobj) to determine if activity warrants an auto-save or if inactivity warrants a logoff.
