Description
When a user logs in the User.last_login_on
field is updated to the current time. This is correct.
When a user logs in with an autologin cookie though, User.last_login_on
isn't updated until their cookie expires. This makes it difficult to see which users have been active recently.
A few ideas for this would be:
- Update
User.last_login_on
each time a user "logs in" with the autologin cookie (e.g. every request) - Add a new User field to track when a user was active and populate that with the time of the last request.
- A better idea I haven't thought of yet....
I'm open to alternative suggestions.

Fixed in r2524. User's last_login_on is now updated when the user starts a new session using autologin cookie, not on each request.
