It's been a totally normal workflow for me to open a ticket and then not try to write into it for a day or more as I'm thinking about how to resolve it. This used to work, but presumably a Trac update has now caused it to set a session token in my browser, which is now expiring before I enter my changes? Worst part, sometimes when I get this message, I'll then use Safari's back button to try to go back to the form, copy what I wrote, reload the page, paste it back in and try to submit again. But already at the first step, after I've hit the back button, the missing token message appears there too. My changes are lost completely and I have to redo / retype them. Is there a way to restore the prior behavior?

This has happened for as long as I can remember if I have a ticket open,
quit my browser, and then have it restore the previously open tabs when
I launch it again.
