Comment (by ConnorBehan):

 There is a VERY simple workaround for those who want to edit the source.
 pidgin/gtkstatusbox.c has the like #define TYPING_TIMEOUT 4000, which
 means it makes us wait 4000 ms or 4 seconds.

 Just change that to whatever you want. Here's a patch that makes it an
 option.
