Description Andreas Tolfsen 2014-08-20 13:16:17 UTC 
Currently POST /session/{id}/timeouts takes a hash map of {"type": TYPE, "ms": N} which allows setting individual timeouts.

If we consider a local end client binding that wants to set them all at once (pseudo code):

    driver.timeouts = [{type: "page load", ms: 123},
                       {type: "implicit", ms: 456},
                       {type: "script", ms: 789}]

This will currently require them to make three individual calls to the endpoint.

An optimization is to allow the endpoint to take an array of dicts instead:

    [{"type": TYPE, "ms": N}, …]
