I wanted to set the timeout to 10 seconds today. It's a shame that it cannot be adjusted. I don't have any issues like the ones Textureglitch has I just think that in a minute I can read the contents of the popup at least 6 times. In addition to that if I call `gnome-session-save --shutdown-dialog' programatically then the popup window wastes for me 50 seconds of battery time.

I hope I don't offend Chris Coulson when I say that it's not the programmer's job to decide how a program should behave, that is the reason the concept of "options" were invented in the first place so please don't try to force your 60 seconds on us; it's bad enough that I have to spend approx. 5 hours a month with Windows computers.
