I deliberately created the no-fee transaction http://blockr.io/tx/info/74ccfd796cf2cb404a2245f699fd0e5cdf2a3a6b8a7b9cf1169ff2f87c124557 from my Armory wallet in order to see how long it would take to be confirmed into the blockchain. https://bitcoinfees.21.co/ indicates something like 23-Inf blocks but the number is some sort of best case scenario. I think maybe some/most/all miners aren't bothering to include any no-fee transactions in the reserved section of blocks anymore. I asked the 21.co guys and they said they might try to improve that portion of their fee reporting page. I'm going to leave the transaction alone a while longer to see if it goes through as long as blockr.io still sees it and doesn't drop it.
I don't think so but will my Armory wallet eventually timeout or something automatically or will I have to take deliberate steps to rectify the situation?

The transaction may never confirm. You couls leave it to mature for multiple days (probably at least 20 days if not more) and see if it gets confirmed that way.
Althoug even blockchin.info's node is neglecting to sow it's TXid. You could look at a guide to perform an RBF double spend in order to get your coins out that way by setting a higher fee. Else, you could contact the user quickseller in roder to accelerate your transaction (you'll have to pay for this also).
