Could use the built-in idle event:

  Does anyone have any suggestions for monitoring idleness of a Flex
application?

The way my app works, pretty much any request to the server will renew a
cookie for another 30 minutes.. so I could just have flex make a generic
request every 10 minutes or so to avoid idling out, but I don't want to do
that.

What I'd like to do is perform that request - say every 5 minutes - if
there has been any kind of activity in the flex app.. keyboard or mouse
activity.. that way the server session stays active, and then if the user
has been "idle" for more than 20 minutes (no keyboard or mouse activity) to
actually blank the flex app window and pop up a login window, forcing the
user to reauthenticate.

I'm just not entirely sure of the best way to go about this.
