- sys.maxint

I definitively don't want zope to cancel a long running transaction
just because my browser got tired of waiting. At the very least this
should be configurable, though I can see a lot of value of being able
to toggle this cancel-transaction behaviour per-request. But the
default should be off (i.e. the transaction keeps going).
