I can't recall when it was, but quite some time ago the any
configuration for those OSD timeouts (which I believe used t be
controlled by themes??) was removed.

For myself I found most all of the default timeouts way to long.  I've
been using this patch ever since (this works with 0.27.3).  As far as
I know this is the only way to change those.  Someone correct me if
I'm wrong:

 }
