check out Recover:
http://plan9.escet.urjc.es/iwp9/cready/recover.pdf
/n/sources/contrib/paurea/recover4e.tgz

back in 2003/2004, brucee added support for aan(8) to an experimental
version of dt2k and wrote an fs (aanfs) for the plan9 side of the
connection.  it is handy for intermittent outages in a wifi network
but obviously not for session migration, etc.  if this is what you
want i'll put them on sources.  you'll have to port them to the
lastest drawterm.
