Comment (by jmichaelward):

 I'm working on an open issue today that relates to this Trac ticket.

 In Gravity Forms, users who attempt to authenticate their sites with
 external services using OAuth usually get redirected back to the settings
 page in the admin. However, we've found that this fails in Chrome if the
 admin has been logged into the site for more than 2 minutes. In those
 situations, when the external service redirects back to WordPress, the
 users are returned to the login screen.

 I suspect there may be other plugins in the ecosystem which will be
 increasingly affected by this. It looks like there's been a lot of great
 potential approaches proposed in this ticket over the past few years – I'm
 happy to collaborate with others who can help prioritize this for the next
 release.
