Some notes:

* the documentation issue has been addressed in 0.7.6 by upstream with that commit:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/libnotify/commit/?id=91280420269c98e408adc0db1e1d1e74cf24c71c

(which adds a "Note that the timeout may be ignored by the server."
note)

* the version with that fix is in saucy

* the new version of GNOME/gnome-shell ignore that parameter the same way that notify-osd is doing:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701645


That's probably not likely to make the users who want to be able to configure that setting, but it seems to be where desktop are heading...
