my €.02 : currently, all resolvers only have artifact patterns as child
elements, so I'd rather have the timeouts as attributes that might use
references, similarly to cache managers or latest strategies. That would
imply a global default that may be overridden individually.

> resolver level. I'm however open to adding that support as well.
