Describe the QA issue

Seen with client 2.11.1 connected to server 10.11.0 which runs openidconnect app 2.2.0-rc.7 with a keycloak IDP.

• Connect client to server.
• Wait 5 minutes, a new browser window appears with an URL like e.g.
  http://127.0.0.1:36355/?state=ejKWV1xzZqqBML...PQ%3D&session_state=0791f3f8-5c53-4b4b-b362-...&code=199d0c21-c41c-4a2e-bf75-...
• Wait longer. new browser windows keep appearing every 5 minutes.
  

Is this some strange form of token-validation?

We no longer automatically open the browser but ask the user in 3.0

Confirmed fixed in 3.0.0

Not sure what "ask the user" means. Nothing pops up, as expected.
