Option to have permanent sessions on mobile apps, manageable on the server
After logging in to the server on a mobile app the server should assign a permanent session to the app. This avoids the necessity of re-loggin in to mobile apps.
In order to keep security the user should be able to view logged in session ("devices") on the server an be able to log them out if necessary.

Thank you Andreas! Both of these can actually be achieved today:
1. Your System Admin can configure how long mobile sessions last in System Console > Security > Sessions > Session length for mobile apps. https://docs.mattermost.com/administration/config-settings.html#sessions
2. Each user can view logged in sessions in Account Settings > Security > View and Logout of Active Sessions. Your System Admin can also revoke all sessions from a user in System Console > Users if necessary.

Hi,
I would like to interject. As far as I can tell, it is not possible to set PERMANENT sessions. You can only set very long session lengths.
