there is

     <parameter name="default-action-timeout" unique="0">
       <shortdesc lang="en">How long to wait for actions to complete</ 
shortdesc>
       <content type="time" default="20s"/>
       <longdesc lang="en">How long to wait for actions to complete</ 
longdesc>
     </parameter>

is that not sufficient?
