It does. :-) That's the default timeout value for the daemon to exit
when inactive, though it can be changed with the UOA_DAEMON_TIMEOUT
environment variable.

No, it's managed by D-Bus: it's started via D-Bus activation when the
System Settings or another client application calls one of its methods.

We can argue whether this 5 seconds timeout makes sense, I've just been
used to this practice (it's also used in many other daemons, for example
in Telepathy).
However, it's wrong to expect that the online-accounts-ui process will
quit when you close its window in the System Settings: there might be
another application which is talking to it at the same time, and this
should keep the process alive.

Anyway, yes, I also think that all this will be fixed when we start
using trusted sessions.
