Could someone please confirm if this is the case ?

I have set 5sec timeout in settings.js, and it seems that whatever the value I try to override it with by setting the `msg.requestTimeout` property before calling an http node, an http response is generated after 5 seconds with a TIMEOUT error.... which should not happen...

Thanks  
Cheers
