Last time I tried to use this I came to the same conclusion (IIRC). I think not updating the session expiration on every use is actually a good design decision, as it would hit the Mongo with session object write with every authenticated read. But it may be wise to perhaps make this configurable or invent some better update magic.

For example, if the session expiration is set to N days, it would be wise to extend the use every day.

If the session expiration is set to N minutes, it may be wise to extend every minute.

if session expires in N hours (but less then a day), it may be wise to update every hour.

so hardcoding 24 hours probably makes sense for longer session expirations in days, and does not work at all for sessions with expirations in hours or minutes.

Please feel free to open a PR; likely a simple fix, just remove the yesterday var.
