Adversarial re-review of the session-epoch work surfaced:
- WS auth (messages_ws) skipped the epoch check, so a revoked-but-unexpired cookie
could still open the live push channel after a reset/logout-others. Now mirrors
current_user: loads the user once, rejects a stale-epoch cookie before connecting.
- set_password + logout_others re-stamped the cookie BEFORE db.commit(); a failed
commit would strand the current session at a newer epoch than the DB and wrongly
401 it. Commit first, then re-stamp.
- Welcome verify effect could double-POST the single-use token (StrictMode/remount)
and flip the banner to a false 'invalid'. Fire-once useRef guard.
Left as-is (low value, documented): the Plex image proxy authenticates without a DB
load / epoch check (poster/art fetches only); adding one would cost a DB hit per image.
