It can be helpful to have it log you out automatically if it is a shared computer. But I would like more options on what happens. On Slashdot they have a checkbox next to the login button to indicate if it is a public terminal. I assume that would cause it to behave differently when it is checked or not.
But I would not want to just start adding features which just make things more complicated. Perhaps an option could be added to the Personal Settings to run or off the timeout.

Closing the navegator SHOULD kill the session, AFAIK.
On a Mac, closing the window does not kill a session - you have to quit the app. The same thing can happen in Win IE 6 if you have multiple windows spawned from each other (ctrl-n to create new window) rather than launching individual instances (at least this used to be the case - I'm not sure if this behavior has changed since the last time I checked).
