This setting makes a lot of stuff related to slow concurrent transactions a lot less scary, so it's something we should recommend always enabling if we discover it's set to the default disabled value at the time that a lock is taken.
We can produce a hint if we pick up a "dangerous lock" with a high, or default value of lock_timeout.
