It would be cool to allow a custom timeout for success message + close form, just like there is for success message + redirect. This would make it easier to read longer success messages, especially those that are custom from an Airtable field.

Co-sign this request. I just had a user tell me they couldn’t read the success message (which is brief!) before the window closed. If that’s not feasible, could the default period of time be extended by a couple of seconds?
