What makes us believe that?  My box was hibernating from 03:12 to
11:54 EST today, and couldn't have responded to anything during that
period.  When I woke the box up, I was pleased to see that Twisted
figured out that it hadn't heard from the master in 8+ hours, and
established a new connection, all by itself.

OTOH, I see the new connection soon got wedged all by itself too ;-),
while running trunk tests just now.
