Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
Currently, when the user logs in, their `userinfo` (not full token) is saved in the request session. This is saved until the user logs out, or the browser session is cleared, or the default session `max_age` of 2 weeks.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
The request session should have a shorter `max_age`. Consider having it match the auth token timeout?
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
Save and refresh the auth token if it has expired.
**Additional context**
See https://www.starlette.io/middleware/#sessionmiddleware:
> max_age - Session expiry time in seconds. Defaults to 2 weeks. If set to None then the cookie will last as long as the browser session.
