Kiosk timeout period
Please make it so that the timeout period for kiosks can be applied only when a patron has logged into their account. While there might be a need to end a session if a patron has only done a search for something, it seems much more important to make sure a patron's account is logged out in a timely manner if they've forgotten to that themselves.

I'm happy with the way timeouts currently work. Apart from patrons not logging out, the timeout forces the catalog to revert to the home screen, which is my preference. If there is no patron logged in, what is the argument for leaving Vega on the last user's search results versus resetting it to the homepage?

It would be helpful to have separate timeout options for when patrons are logged in vs. not logged in.
We definitely want to ensure patron privacy for their own account.
We have also noticed that if the catalog isn't on its home screen, some patrons will walk by it, anticipating that the person looking at the item/results will be back momentarily.
