If you're referring to the confirmation dialog for the indicator-session
applet, then that's a separate issue unrelated to the gnome-session
dialog (and I think that's already reported).

The timeout on the gnome-session dialog will not be changed. The gnome-
session dialog is not a confirmation dialog, but is necessary to choose
what action you want to perform (ie, whether you want to shutdown,
reboot, hibernate etc). How do you expect users to choose the action
they want to perform in 2 - 3 seconds?

And what benefit does changing the timeout give you anyway? You will
still see the dialog, but it will just disappear quicker. The timeout is
there mainly for people who select the action, and then forget to
confirm the action and walk away. The timeout ensures that if this
happens, appropriate action is taken. You don't actually have to sit
around and wait for it to timeout - you'd still have to perform an
action to confirm, whatever the timeout was.

** Changed in: gnome-session (Ubuntu)
