Do you have a concrete example? I can not. however, i did mention the weird user interactions we get if the timeout is based on invocation time -- that is, the permission dialog could be accepted at the same time that the timeout happens. The user would think that they just approved the request, and expect that the ua starts doing geolocation stuff. Doug
