LTPA token timeout should respond to user activity

This is a requirement for ISO 27001 certification. This type of functionality is required by many security teams, and it is really hard to justify, explain, and get security deviations. It would be useful because users would not be harassed by frequent and unexpected sudden log in requests, whereby they lose data.

At present, the LTPA SSO time out is decided at user log in according to the configured time. It does not matter that a user is performing actions and is actively entering information into a Web browser or clicking buttons etc., the time out will occur at the specified time. It would be so much better if the time out were extended through such activity and the log out not occur until after the activity subsided.

One of the main causes of issue is that session time outs are restricted to the primary login window. Spawning multiple sessions does not "reset" the timeout clock. Users tend to work in multiple browser windows, login in to one and at times spawning multiple duplicate tabs. If the users main focus of changes is in one of these spawned/secondary windows, if no updates are done in the primary window, session timeout will occur. This causes any spawned windows to also terminate, losing any changes made by the user.

    IBM product ELM has a RFE, "ELM session timeout interval should start counting up from user's last access", which cannot be realized without this RFE's functionality.

    Some IBM products based on Liberty have the LTPA SSO time out issue because Liberty does not have this functionality.
