I believe that Kobo, in their usual wisdom, implemented the auto-log off feature without any finesse, and is just logging off everyone, regardless of the setting of the QuickBuy flag. They did, after all, forceably turn on QuickBuy for everyone. Obviously, Quick Buy is a good idea, why would anyone not want to use it?

I just had an image of Kobo as an especially distractable dog, getting a thought and acting on it, without really thinking about the ramifications of the action, or thinking through to the next step of consequence.
