+1. But, existing users may not notice addition of the new option and
still continue to face problem. If we add the option and make it
default not to reconnect, they will notice it and use option to get
older behaviour, but that will break applications relying on the
current behaviour. Either way, users will have at least something to
control the connection reset.
