Session Timeouts and 1194.22(p)

I've been wondering about session inactivity timeouts and 1194.22(p).
Based on a very small amount of research I've done, the industry
approach seems to be to assert support for 22(p) and note the presence
of a session inactivity timeout in the remarks field of the product
VPAT.

Have any agencies put forth a position on this? I would not consider
silent session expirations an example of supporting the technical
standard, but the 'wisdom of the crowd' seems to imply I am not in the
majority.



Thanks,
