positive value (wait for given amount of seconds) or one of the following
values:
-* -2 - block forever waiting for a result,
-* -1 - reset timeout to the default value,
+* -2 - block forever waiting for a result (used when --timeout is omitted),
+* -1 - reset timeout to the default value (currently defined as 5 seconds in
+ libvirt daemon),
* 0 - do not wait at all,
