I don't believe there is a universal solution. I would say that it 
depends on personal preferences and a use case. I.e., if it's part of  a 
login procedure I would prefer immediate redirection back to login page. 
If it's invoked from a user action - just to change the password, some 
delay might be good.

We might add a URL param(s) to configure the delay/link.
