unexpected session no longer valid message

Seen in some automated tests, for example https://wmf.ci.cloudbees.com/job/VisualEditor-en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org-linux-firefox/410/testReport/(root)/VisualEditor/Edit_with_strings__outline_example_____Editing_with_%C3%A1%C3%A9%C3%AD%C3%B3%C3%BA___Editing_with_%C3%A1%C3%A9%C3%AD%C3%B3%C3%BA___/

in the span of less than 90 seconds, this test does these steps: 

* start a browser (Firefox)
* login to beta labs and navigate to an editable page
* dismisses the beta warning
* edits the page with a smallish string
* click Save page
* click This is a minor edit
* click Review your changes
* click Return to save form
* edit the description of the change
* click Save page the second time

At the last step, the result shows an error message "Warning: we could not process your edit because the session was no longer valid..." 

See screen shot.  

Note in the screen shot that the user is still logged in properly at the time they receive the error message.
