This may be a wontfix, or at least the fix involved is to provide an
option in canonical-identity-provider about how long to persist the
login.

The reason things work this way currently is because otherwise there
is a security issue on shared computers. If logging out of
one.ubuntu.com left you logged into launchpad, then the next person to
come along and attempt to access one.ubuntu.com would be able to login
without needing to re-enter their credentials (because the launchpad
cookie would be used).
