Unfortunately the timeout is set on a Statement object, not the
Connection, so any number of different timeouts may be floating around and
we'd need to set and reset the timeout on each query execution to ensure
we're executing with the right timeout. So that's how it will be
implemented eventually, but it's not just a trivial SET that we're
missing.
