Hi All,

Unless I'm missing something, Deferred.addTimeout is really unhelpful in 
terms on providing context about *what* timed out.
TimeoutError(<some number>, 'Deferred') just isn't that useful.

How come addTimeout doesn't let you specify a textual reason, or 
otherwise provide some context about the timeout?

Am I missing something obvious here?

Chris
