 A user was banned on Jan 6th (by me)

 On Jan 13th, they were still logged in (or were able to log back in) and
 submitted a plugin.

 I'm going to make a related ticket about why on earth a banned user can
 upload anyway, but this is making it clear that the whole 'banned users
 get logged out' is not functioning properly.

 We need to revisit whatever it is we're doing on banned users to force
 logout, becuase now the only way to ensure they won't just keep on keeping
 on is to reset passwords, which alerts people that we changed their
 passwords and gets them all weird and angry (understandably).

 I can provide specifics if needed, but I don't want to name/shame in a
 ticket.
