I'm using Chrome (19.0.1084.46) on the Mac (10.7.3) with all default
settings on the browser.  I'll file a ticket with the info.  Please
let me know if there is some debug tracing I can turn on that would
help track it down.

There's no error when I get logged out.  It simply loses my logged-in state.

I went ahead and created a superuser account via the command line like
you mentioned.  Logging in with this superuser account works
flawlessly - I haven't been logged out yet, whereas I would have been
several times via BrowserID.


I'll go ahead and files tickets on the other ones we discussed on this thread.

Thanks again

Jeff
