"Xyz (Logged in)" ... for example on the http://test.leuksman.com

This "(Logged in)" as such makes sense, but not, when it only means "user has not yet logged-out"

It's the badly named name of a default user permissions group, and has no relation to whether or not someone is logged in at the moment.

I propose to add a "decay time" let's say in the range of hours, and when this time has elapsed without the user coming back, the >>display status<< (Logged in) is dropped in Special:Listusers. Of course, this shall not mean, that the cookies for "login across sessions" are invalidated.

That would not make a lot of sense.
