I misunderstood your original point. I thought you were saying the error 
appeared after 10 minutes hanging trying to submit the POST form. If you 
mean that it tried to initiate a login after 10 minutes, the only thing I 
can tell you is that whatever did it didn't have a valid session.

Yes, that would be a reason to change the setting. But as I said, that 
setting would have to have been applied regardless of which syntax you're 
using, old or "new" (hardly new, it's many years old at this point).

I don't know what you mean by offending content. You can't fix it by 
changing the template. It is what it is. You can take the JS out and turn 
it into a manual form, but you can't take the form out. Not without 
breaking the SP any time it uses that binding.

I don't think I understand what the issue is or what you're saying you did 
to fix it at this point. The only way to use POST for some content and 
Redirect for other content would be to implement some pretty complex 
workarounds involving ApplicationOverrides.
