Hello,

I'm using Auth_RemoteUser as an immutable session provider in the following environment:

* MediaWiki 1.30.0 (830bb58) * Auth_remoteuser 2.0.1 (0af2823) 16:22, 24 April 2018 * Page Forms 4.3 (c35e352) 13:50, 14 March 2018 * Immutable Session Provider - CA Policy Agent for Apache

I have recently patched Auth_remoteuser to solve the "First-Save" bug that was fixed recently [2] , but a remaining problem that was not resolved by that patch is as follows:

When a user's session times-out before they SAVE during form page edit (ala 'action=formedit'), the page form loses the user's edits in the process of having a new session created. This does not happen (loss of edits) with a normal edit (action=edit), only with form edits. [0]

There has been talk about this problem in the past [1] and I'm wondering if the fix has been verified for users using AuthRemoteUser with an immutable session provider configuration.

Can anyone help me identify if this is indeed a problem with Auth_RemoteUser or (unlikely) with Page Forms.
