...Like Django's session or cookies

Does anyone have a simple way of allowing this?

There are plenty of session libraries that let you do persistent sessions on App Engine; Nick's Blog has a good article here showing off both Beaker and gaeutilities session facilities in a concise manner.

Under Application Settings in the App Engine dashboard, you can choose either 1 day, 1 week, or 2 week cookie expiration, assuming you're using the Users API.

I don't believe the cookie should ever be set to expire when the browser is closed, unless the user's browser setting is causing this behavior. I can certainly stay logged in to my applications when restarting my browser.
