      The listCollections command accepts the maxTimeMS option but does not enforce the timeout.

      This is a regression from the 2.6.X model which performed a query on the system.namespaces collection which does enforce the timeout.

      Note that the server does imply that the command supports the maxTimeMS with the following error message:

      > db.runCommand({"listCollections" : 1, $maxTimeMS : 1}); 
      {
      	"ok" : 0,
      	"errmsg" : "no such command option $maxTimeMS; use maxTimeMS instead"
      }
