The library documentation talks about using Set Selenium Timeout for the Execute Async Javascript timeout. While there is a script timeout within the Selenium Python bindings. Review this code to see if we should be setting the script timeout via a keyword.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the implementation of the Set Selenium Timeout and Execute Async Javascript keywords, then compare their behavior with the Selenium Python bindings' script-timeout API. Done means determining whether script timeout needs a dedicated keyword and, if so, defining the resulting keyword behavior and documentation change.
