I want my sessions either to be long-lived (several months) or, at the<br>
user's discretion, only last for the current browser session.<br>

It doesn't save any session state that way, but avoiding the login is often what users are after rather than remembering the exact state of the session. Not sure how useful that would be for someone returning days later.</div>
