Users can remain online even when their sessions get disconnected

See original GitHub issue

Currently not sure how to replicate. Could be a multiplexing bug with reloads mixed in.

Observed in TurkServer after several hundred user connections (the 1 session below is the admin):

UAs of these “stuck” users seem to be pretty recent browsers, including latest Chrome:

"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/36.0.1985.125 Safari/537.36", 
"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:30.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/30.0", 
"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:30.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/30.0", 
"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/31.0", 
"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_9_4) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/36.0.1985.125 Safari/537.36", 
"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.9; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/31.0", 
"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:27.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/27.0"

These will get cleared when the server restarts, but are generally troublesome for determining when someone has actually gone away.
