I think this is a better note based on the kokugo definitions. I don't think the other two glosses fit with the note and the newest gloss, so I removed them, seems less confusing like this.

it's in daijisen: 相当な程度に達しているので、ほどほどのところで終わってほしいさま。「―に雨もやんでほしい」「冗談は―でやめてくれ」
and nikkoku: かなりの程度までいっているので、もうほどほどにしたいさま。このくらいでおわりにしたいさま。
and I'm sure all the others too, these two just spell it out properly.

it's just that jmdict sense 3 is not glossed very helpfully. "gone on for long enough" could work
