My concern with quirking it is that we'd have to settle on what we think is the worst case timeout, then it becomes compiled into that kernel for that device. The devices I'm dealing with are actively under development, and the time to ready gets bigger or smaller as updates occur, or some new worst case scenario is discovered. Making this a boot time decicion really helps with experimentation here.
