I think this should be an OSSN (not an OSSA).  I do agree that this is
more of a "tribal knowledge" item at this point, but we need to get the
word out abotu how it bahaves more broadly.  I honestly don't think that
this is a solvable problem.  The token validity period needs to be a
choice of acceptable risk (just as it is for things like a Kerberos
deployment).
