No work has been done on this.  I've made this
   http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/735
so it doesn't get lost in the shuffle.

I've recently become a heavy user of "screen" (the unix tool), and
now my perspective how been somewhat changed...  I definitely
want to rework how timing out works -- i.e., it never happens by
default, when you visit your homepage in the notebook it clearly
shows all worksheets with a running sage session, etc.  Design
discussion would be welcome here.  Please try out "screen"
if you haven't already too.
