I am rather against this. We already have the option to enable it, which
is necessary.

But tweaking the parameters… Every time I have seen somebody want to do
it, it was for the wrong reasons, to control user-visible timeouts.
These settings are not designed for that and do not offer enough control
to do it accurately.

The fact that the proposal talks of using it in HTTP but not how is not
encouraging.

The fact that it does not work on Windows is also an indication: we
cannot rely on them to implement features.

Let us just close #11671 as wontfix.
