Why am I disconnected after a refresh (F5) / Why aren't we automatically connected ?

Only the chatbox is refreshed, but this is using some database and then, sends requests, so this consumes server loading uselessly for some cases.
So, when you access the homepage (or portal), the chatbox stays (and will stay) logged off.
