No. There is no sensible reason that anyone would want the unlock dialog to stay on the screen for a week.
Also it will burn your screen.

The option passwdTimeout controls how long the input screen for the password lasts. Maybe it would be useful if the option can be set natively to unlimited instead of using a very high value. Currently the value 0:00:00 is invalid so maybe it could be an alias for unlimited.
