This question sounds familiar, so I wonder if I've already talked to
you.  Anyway:

* If you want timeouts and logouts, you need to get away from HTTP
authentication and use session based authentication.

* As for a standard system, we decided to build our own on top of
paste.auth.cookie.  I would have loved to use an existing system, but
I didn't see any clear winners. :-/  Have a look through all the
paste.auth stuff at the very least.

Happy Hacking!
