This works around a current issue in prod where actions are failing to persist because the session expires.
The real fix for the underlying issue (IMHO) is to re-implement
xrpc.Client
to handle this in a more elegant and robust way. That is sort-of tracked in #378I was initially confused why this was only coming up when taking actions, because the client is used for a number of reads (GET) as well. Those GETs mostly use admin auth (a token in the HTTP Authorization header), not login/session auth (which requires refresh), which explains why it mostly works, then fails for actions.
