I was a bit surprised today as I was doing some testing. When I logged out from [meta.discourse.org](http://meta.discourse.org) in my Chrome browser, I got logged out of [meta.discourse.org](http://meta.discourse.org) in my Safari session as well. Also works the other way, as well as on a mobile browser.

Is this intended behaviour? it strikes me as quite odd. I don’t know of any other web app that does this.
