I think we need to allow users to be able to set authenticated sessions as immortal.

I don't think a default of 0 is a good idea. If it is not set, then sessions that were previously configured - either programmatically or via web.xml - to timeout after x minutes are suddenly immortal after authentication.

Ooops, commented too soon. Now I've read the LoginAuthenticator code and it's the other way around: you can't cause sessions to become immortal after being authenticated. Immortality is indicated by a timeout <= 0, but you're only setting the maxInactiveInterval iff it's > 0.

I've updated so that non-zero values are set on authentication, so we can now make a session immortal on authentication with a value of -1.

But delete the commented out lines of code, and maybe consider consistent naming of the fields as per my comments. Extra combination of test cases would be good, but (hopefully) not critical :)
