If Leia has the Skywalker impatience it would give her family tie to Luke some validity if they had previously came up with a long term plan but her emotional attachment to Han had got in the way.

As a Rebel leader Leia may be used to long waits and the risk of sacrificing comrades (just as Anakin and Luke would) but when there is a direct emotional attachment the Skywalker way seems to be to rush in and need rescuing.

I smell what you're cooking here, but still think it's a bit of a stretch. Leia is a take charge kind of dame. She took over her own rescue in "Star Wars." I don't see her to twiddle her thumbs and wait for incopetent Luke to come back and save the day.
