Hello,

I would use a system similiar to Github or Phabricator.  When you log
out, it only invalidate your current browser session.   Then in you
preference you have a list of all valid sessions which which you can
manually invalidate.

On Github that is under Settings -> Security
https://github.com/settings/security

That shows me:


== Sessions ==
This is a list of devices that have logged into your account. Revoke any
sessions that you do not recognize.

 Nantes: some IP
 Safari on OS X 10.9.4
 Location: Nantes, France
 Signed in: May 26, 2014

That gives enough information to identify the sessions and invalidate
them if needed.   We could add a tab to Special:Preferences.


An interesting feature on Github is the security history which listnew
sessions and from where I logged on.   Might be worth a look at.


The same goes on for Phabricator, if you are logged in:
 http://fab.wmflabs.org/settings/panel/sessions/

Gives me a table such as:

+--------+-------+----+---------------------+------------+
|Identity|Session|Type|Created              |Expires     |
+--------+-------+----+---------------------+------------+
|hashar  |abcdef |web |Apr 29 2014, 7:54 AM |Tue, Aug 19 |      
+--------+-------+----+---------------------+------------+

There are less informations than on Github though.
