How does one go about releasing a lock on a panel page upon log out? Is this possible? This situation is: After clicking "customize this page", a lock appears on that page. User forgets to release the lock or logouts without releasing the lock. Would it be possible to set a timeout on the lock? Or prompt the user to unlock pages when logging out ... ? Granted an admin can break the lock, but we're hoping to avoid reaching out an admin for this purpose.

Thanks!

In theory, on cron we could check for locks where the associated session is deleted and just clear them; the data is orphaned at that point anyway. Right now there is nothing that does this, it would have to be written.

Thanks merlinofchaos. Would it be OK if I made this a feature request then ... ? (-:

Sure. It'd be against CTools, since that's really all about Page Manager.
