Also, there is a class of bugs called "token leaks", where an application
fails to properly dispose of acquired tokens and therefore no logoff event
is generated. We added a new event for Windows .NET Server ("begin logoff")
that helps to cause the audit log to be consistent even in the presence of
such bugs.
