Felix,

I'm having trouble seeing how your connection state recovery is 
something that is safe to do, assuming that it is something like:

  * I enter some commands.  Some are still buffered up.
  * Connection drops.
  * Connection is re-established.
  * My buffered up commands are sent.

Is that accurate?

How is that safe in the event that something has changed on the server 
side in the time between the connection drops and is re-established? 
What happens if a command gets executed twice by some misfortune?
