Comment (by timo):
I agree the current implementation of `timeout` is odd and we should move
it to the dictionary setting.
In terms of grouping email settings, I was thinking it would allow us to
group other backend options like `EMAIL_FILE_PATH`:
{{{
EMAIL = {
'BACKEND': 'django.core.mail.backends.filebased.FileBackend',
'FILE_PATH': '...',
}
}}}
A better grouping might be to have an `EMAIL['BACKEND_OPTIONS']` key
(mirroring how we have `OPTIONS` in `DATABASES`) with value `{'FILE_PATH':
'...'}` (or the dictionary that's equivalent to the proposed `SMTP_CONFIG`
if `'BACKEND'` were `smtp.EmailBackend`).
