Right, I think we're on the same page there- I had just commented to
Zoltan that tracking the accumulated time shouldn't be the timeout
system's responsibility and that the timout API really shouldn't need
to be changed.
I'm not convinced that the lock-time-accumulation-timeout capability
is really all that valuable in the first place though, but perhaps I'm
in the minority on that.
Thanks,
