What I hate is the instant power saving of most displays. You try to reboot and see some BIOS info or even the key to enter ... and you end up booting the OS because the display is too slow.

And why do all monitors display a message, usually on a bright white background, saying they are going into power saving mode shortly when the connected device is turned off?

I doubt they'll ever fix it. Setting a timer is among the hardest problems in computer science.
