Since this is a new API I think that we should finally fix the broken
semantics of the old API and return a 'timeout' code rather than
success. Obviously this will make the implementation quite more
challenging, but the old semantics are really broken.

Without this it is just syntax-sugar for callers which are too lazy to
extract the snippet from the XML and pass it to the old API.
