What version do you mean by "Currently"?  This came up a while ago, and 
the template was changed to only include the value in the DD if you 
actually include the config parameter.

And in other app servers, 0 means never timeout...  I wonder what the spec 
says?  Feel free to raise an enhancement request to improve the docs, 
though.

See version 1.8 of the template file at
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/xdoclet/xdoclet/modules/web
/src/xdoclet/modules/web/resources/web_xml.xdt
with the comment "session-config element now only appears if you actually 
define a sesstiontimeout config param.".  AFAICS this has been the case 
since July 25...
