            Bug ID: 50424
           Summary: "Inactive token" message after period of inactivity
                    leads to lost work
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General
          Assignee: jforres...@wikimedia.org

An attempt to save an article in the visual editor after a period of inactivity
results in the "Invalid token" error message and saving fails. At this point,
the user is completely stuck and their entire work is lost. 

Loss of session data can also occur in the regular source code edit window, but
is easily rectified by repeated saving; this doesn't work in the visual editor. 

I would classify this as user-hostile behavior.
