But then I realized there's a whole can of worms +involving bracket not working like I expected it to. + +Got a bit side tracked checking if other people expect bracket to work the +way it actually does, and [seem to have found a +bug](https://github.com/haskell/process/issues/183) in the `process` +library. Which is especially concerning since it's just the first place I +looked, so what other libraries might have similar problems? + +So the timeouts feature is seeming a lot less plasible than it did last +week. I'll probably defer it until later. The work done on it so far is +at least generally an improvement to the code.
