Set session to never expire in settings, and when remember_me is found false in login POST, set it to browser session expiry. Works only in Django 1+.

This snippet does not work correctly.

If the first login attempt was not successful wihtout checkbox remember_me, a second attempt is successful with checkbox remember_me - the session will be expire after you close your browser.
