How do we expire idle sessions if a client only uses Subversion api's once a day?

I don't think we want to rely on timers or threads.

Before this is merged back I would really like some supported option to just close all sessions (perhaps including those to the working copy databases), without destroying the client context.

The context also caches credentials, etc.

In shared process environments such as Eclipse and Visual Studio where libsvn_client is indirectly used, we can't just always hold on to expensive/limited resources.
