If the bugs have all been fixed already, then maybe we could also use a nil timeout in older Emacsen, but we've lived with 0.1 in them, so I think it's OK to keep using a suboptimal value there.
0.1 is not merely suboptimal (i.e., slower than it should be), it's also incorrect (as it can sometimes lose data due to races). Even if we must use 0.1 in older Emacs to work around more-serious bugs there, we should use nil in Emacs master.
