             Summary: [Broker-J, WMC] When the session ends (timeout, broker goes away, connection lost) the UI should cearly indicate this
                 Key: QPID-8022
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-8022
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Java Broker
            Reporter: Lorenz Quack


Currently when the http session ends (for example when the configured {{qpid.port.http.absoluteSessionTimeout}} expires) the Web Management Console (WMC) displays a  dialogue box (with a generic 401 error in this case) offering a button to log in again.
However, the dialogue box is closable. If the user closes it the WMC remains somewhat usable. All client-side operations continue to work (e.g., create a Query). Some operations fail silently (e.g., retrieving data when opening a new tab by double clicking on, for example, a Port) and yet other operations redisplay the 401 dialogue (e.g., broker-side operations involving POST or PUT).

I think when the user is no longer logged in the WMC should clearly indicate this by  somehow preventing all further use of the WMC. From a security point of view we also want the existing data currently being displayed to disappear.
