[ Removing a timeout for a message does not exactly amount to "turning
the world around"... ]
We don't avoid fixing minor issues just because they are old, do we?
That's not something I have ever heard proposed before.
For all we know, users have been frustrated with this for ages, but no
one told us about it until now.
That said, the other alternative I proposed was increasing the timeout
to 10 seconds to give the user enough time to read it.
