Since Tim Peters is the absolute authority on concurrency in Python,
let's just close this as Rejected rather than letting it sit here forever.

I have a question:
Why not to raise an exception?
Timeout means something has messed up, can not continue.
We are not doing task scheduling, aren't we?

Benjamin Peterson added the comment:
I don't think an exception is the proper thing to use here. Having the
wait timeout is not exceptional or unexpected.
Timeout means something has messed up, can not continue.
Not really. It means we didn't want to wait this long to be notified.
