Improved ATE timeout response when timeout occurs while ATE focus is within a GUI control that manages its own input messages, such as XTREE and XTEXT. Previously ATE would give no visual indication in such cases that the timeout had occurred and the connection severed.
Note: session timeout is always a potentially messy business, and thus not recommended unless you take care to design and code for the ramifications. But if you must have it, for GUI applications it is preferable to let ATE manage it on the client side rather than the server side, because the server side has no way of detecting certain kinds of client-level activity (like moving the mouse), which a user would have the right to expect to forestall a timeout. (See IATIMEOUT and AG_IATIMEOUT for further information on configuring timeouts.)
