Here's a suggestion.
Turn off the servlet session timeout mechanism (i.e. make it infinite)
and implement a timeout mechanism yourself. You'd store the time of
each access in the session, and on each new access, check if the time
since the previous access is beyond your timeout period. If so, send
them back to the login page. You could store which login page they
used, and whatever other information you need, in the session itself.
I haven't paid such close attention to this entire discussion, so
apologies if this is not appropriate for some reason. Also, I'm not
familiar with all the technical details, so it's possible that this
suggestion isn't totally feasible.
