Bug description:
  This happened with the facebook webapp, but it's an issue which could
  happen with any webapp which integrates with Online Accounts: at some
  point (after weeks of using the webapp), everytime the user opens the
  webapp he's asked to login again.

  This happens because the cookies in Online Accounts have expired, and
  even after the user has successfully logged into the webapp, the
  webapp cookies are being overwritten by the cookies copied over from
  OA (which are still the expired ones).
