OK, I understand, that REST allows to perform the (SET) command, but to use it with a query, I have to send the query in another, following, request.
Will this second request keep enough context at the server side to know, it shall use that timeout?
As REST is (or shall be) stateless, no context shall be assumed, so the timeout shall be forgotten.
Or is there an option to send query AND the set command in one request?

As our JAX-RX (REST) interface communicates with a BaseX server
instance in the background, you can as well set the TIMEOUT option to
limit your query execution time.

Hope this helps,
Christian
