   This would be a behavior change, so at very least I think we should add a config option and documentation for it. Anyway, it depends on what you consider as "Inactive".  In the current behavior, "Inactive" refers to the session abstraction in Livy server. So if a user doesn't access it, that object is inactive. If you consider the Spark job, instead, the right behavior is the one described in this PR.
   
   I agree the current behavior is confusing (I got confused myself at the beginning) and despite the workaround is easy (there is a REST endpoint for avoiding the timeout...), it would be good to clarify and document it better. So, to summarize, I think we should first document properly the current status rather than doing a behavior change as proposed in this PR.
   cc @vanzin too for his opinion on this.
