No we should probably document some in the main section, and maybe later
on have an appendix where we document the ones that normally really
shouldn't be touched with big warnings that changing them w/o
understanding the consequences is bad ?

If an appendix like that is not welcome then we should make a list of
timeouts we won't document for now.
