I took a quick stab at implementing a "logout" handler to this app as the Try it again? link not actually being a logout but just a redirect to / with the session still valid irked me. This is the patch I did:

I logged in with user a@a in a chrome window and then b@b in an incognito window. I logged out of user a@a and this worked, but when attempting to re-login with a@a I'm only getting http 400 from /assertion with "error unmarshaling data". What super obvious thing am I missing?

The log also mentions an invalid time stamp on the securecookie

"fixed" by just setting the cookie Expires to time.Unix(0, 0) instead of fooling with the maxage bits.
