Description
IPFS is supposed to be interplanetary, with us setting timeouts for X minutes in multiple places it will be hard to get it running for interplanetary distances.
What I suggest is package with defined interface of timeouts, like connection timeout, time to live timeout and maybe "long" timeout. That then can be just change if someone wants to run IPFS on higher latency.
