MsgBox timeout not working

Description
Hi
When I use either $MB_SERVICE_NOTIFICATION or $MB_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_ONLY flags (or the decimal/hex equivalents) for a msgbox, the timeout doesn't work.
eg
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> MsgBox($MB_SERVICE_NOTIFICATION, "Title", "Text",10)
Does not timeout.
I am running Win7 32bit with the latest public release (3.3.12.0) and have tried the most recent Beta (3.3.13.19) but no joy.

As stated in the thread this was originally brought up in:
http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/165858-message-box-timeout-not-working/
This type of modal setting for a MsgBox can not have a time out in the message box command itself, it just won't work. This is a Windows issue and not an AutoIt one. I am changing this to a documentation issue for the help file rather than a bug, as it is not a bug, just a Windows limitation.
