You don't know when the user closes the browser.  In fact, you don't
know anything after the user's last request, whether you will hear
from them again or not.  The normal way to handle this is a cron job
that deletes all sessions that have been idle for a period of time
(say 8 hours or whatever you want).  I haven't done this in Pylons,
but somehow you should be able to ask Beaker which sessions exist and
when they were last modified.
