I think that > `minibuffer-message-timeout' is an appropriate user option for them: No, `minibuffer-message-timeout' means something different -- it's the timeout for messages which _overwrite_ the minibuffer, which are quite different than messages that are appended to it (namely that overriting the minibuffer in the first place is a completely sucky UI, and a user may want to make its duration very short, but keep appended messages for a long time). -miles -- Occam's razor split hairs so well, I bought the whole argument!
