Description
Hello fellow Redmine pfSense members,
I have noticed that as long as you have GUI activity it will not timeout. However with use of EDIT FILE the timer runs even when working with the files.
Is this expected as it does not do this with admin users for the other pages as long as you are working?
I keep getting kicked while working on a file.

While you are editing a file there is no communication between your browser and the server, the activity is all local to the client and the server doesn't know the client is still there. Eventually your CSRF token and/or the login session will expire if it sits there long enough. It would be insecure to allow it to sit open indefinitely and still save afterward.
