The Timemark timeout has always worked, the PTF you are thinking of simply makes
it work more quickly.  However, the Timemark setting is for testing the client
connection, not the local activity.  QINACTITV tests the local activity.  Both
will close a Telnet connection, so the lower of the two wins.
