Allow login cookies on ProGet to persist across browser restarts
-
At current (or at the time of testing about a week or two ago), ProGet only (or is appearing to) allow login cookies to persist across the current browser session, and not past things like a restart of a web browser.
This gets quite annoying, especially when I'm getting some work done and might be constantly opening and closing my web browser.
Any chance cookies could persist past the closing of my web browser?

Hi @hwittenborn ,
I can definitely see how this could get annoying; this has been the design of our products for quite a while, mostly for simplicity/security reasons, and there hasn't been much demand for changing it. We're definitely open, so if other users are interested we'll certainly consider it.
Most administrators prefer "short sessions" (i.e. logged out at browser close or with no activity) for their own management simplicity; if we were to add "long sessions" (the "Remember Me" checkbox using persistent cookies), then administrators would need to worry about which users are "logged in", for how long, and terminate those sessions. And then we'd have to add all the features to support that capability - so nontrivial.
Best,
Steve
