Comment (by peterwilsoncc):

 I realised I was mistaken about don’t remember me after reviewing the
 code. The second instance is used, as John points out. The docs should
 document authentication time as:

 Remember me: Remain logged in for 14 days, the cookie is stored for 14.5
 days to avoid data loss in background Ajax requests immediately after the
 login expires and users are prompted to log back in.

 Don’t remember me: remain logged in for the current browser session or up
 to two days (whichever is shorter) in browsers that remain open

 The copy will need a little tidying up.
