Scripts actually get 3 seconds to complete. They aren't currently
expected to run for long, especially on network disconnection, because
the network is already gone. You can run the dispatcher with debug mode
like:
/usr/libexec/nm-dispatcher.action --debug --persist
The daemon currently doesn't block waiting on scripts, but there have
been discussions to make it do so. Which would make this problem even
more acute, since network changes could block on long-running scripts.
