Alex, I've been in touch with Chris Thilgen, from the AIR team who tells me it's a Flex SDK issue.

I assumed you'd essentially proved it was an AIR issue. If so, there is no source to look at or patch. If the same requested timeout works on Mac or in Flash, it probably is an AIR/Windows issue. They generally like non-Flex test cases so if you can conjure up a simple AS-only case with NetConnection and show that timeouts are not working, that might expedite things. RemoteObject lives on top of NetConnection.

I've started to dig through the Flex SDK source but have not run across the smoking gun yet - a lot of the Remoting related classes haven't been modified since 2009. Seems to me that if I knew the correct place to look, devising a patch could be relatively straightforward.

I'm hoping we can get the issue escalated. Voting for it should help increase its visibility.
