Has anyone else noticed a change in pager-based timeouts?

I generally track mutt's mercurial tree, and I noticed that recently mutt started timing out (being "Disconnected for Inactivity") if I let it sit while viewing a message (i.e. in the internal pager). However, I can let it sit on a mailbox index display forever without trouble.

Any idea what might be causing the problem?

hmm, it was supposed to have gotten better, not worse :)

I'm assuming some change in either [12a6de725483] or [4f67fc336986], but I haven't figured out what exactly did it yet.

It'd be great if you could bisect.

The problem *appears* to be solved by putting imap_keepalive() back in pager.c, which was removed in [4f67fc336986].

Though I suppose there's probably a better fix that involves some other timeout function, since the pager probably should care that I'm connected to an imap server.
