It would seem dependent on the actions files if the timeout is/isn't
used.
Example
auth_admin Authentication by an administrative user is required.
v.s.
auth_admin_keep Like auth_admin but the authorization is kept for a
brief period (e.g. five minutes).
I'd forgotten about the difference between "auth_admin" and
"auth_admin_keep".
On my system, 72% of "auth_admin{,_keep}" are "auth_admin_keep".
