Hello Calvin
I was excited to try the fix.  However, the idle time is showing the actual
elapsed time logged in.
As well, if there are 2 connections from one machine, both get the same
elapsed time.

example:
 14:53:42 up 1 day, 48 min,  4 users,  load average: 3.24, 3.21, 3.18
USER     TTY      FROM             LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU  WHAT
root     tty1     -                Tue16   22:04m  4:00m  1:52m rsync -val
--progress /external/......
root              192.168.0.15     Tue20   *24:48m*  0.00s  3.41s sshd:
root@pts/0
root              192.168.0.15     14:53   *24:48m * 0.00s  0.04s sshd:
root@pts/1

pts/0 should have been about 15m in this case

Do I need to make a new bug report?
