I just had a thought -- there basically are no non-TLS connections in
use any more (that we care about).  So can the TLS layer help us with
this problem?

*gasp*

https://gnutls.org/manual/gnutls.html#index-gnutls_005fheartbeat_005fping

There's a TLS layer ping!

Could we somehow use that for something fun?  Like, for instance, have
nnimap (etc) send an asynchronous ping before a command, and if there is
no response to the ping, reconnect and retry?  That would be something
that could work on for all the different protocols, so we wouldn't have
to implement this all over the place.
