Some might want to deploy it user-configurable, but others might want
site-wide enforcement of some maximum or minimum.

I'll happily merge a patch that lets the user change the timeout within
an administrator-specified min and max.. this would allow the admin to
restrict to a particular timeout, a particular window, or not restrict
at all.
