I have tried logging in with a known account and adding a new email to a known account and now creating a new account with two emails.

In all cases, the Account Manager page (Diresworb.org) is not keeping in sync with beta.myfavoritebeer.org.

For example:
I logged into the beer site with jabjab101.
Diresworb.org does not switch to the Account Manager page unless I refresh the browser.

I add a second email to this "account" jabjab101: now have jabjab103
A new Account Manager page is opened in the browser as a result of the email confirmation.
It shows both emails.
But, the original Diresworb.org page still shows the single email account.

Finally, I log out of jabjab103 and open an old Beta account with jabjab102
Even after logging into the beer site with jabjab102, the Account Manager page still shows the account info with two emails:
jabjab101
jabjab103
If I now refresh the Account Manager page, it correctly shows just jabjab102.
If I log out of the beer site, the Account Manager page still shows jabjab102.

What is the set timeout/sync value for refresh/update of the Account Manager page?

If I am the "owner" of both accounts, this leaves open the possibility of updating/editing/cancelling the jabjab101/jabjab103 account while still logged into the beer site with jabjab102.
