First of all, I understand such timeout as the maximum time the pcp
command will wait for a connection with the given pgpool-II instance
to be established. Under that premise, I would say that it can safely
removed as those commands would normally be typed by a system
administrator, and you don't care about such timeout because you are
in front of the console at that moment.

Of course, someone running pcp commands from a script in a cron job or
similar may think the opposite. :)
