I don't know how relevant the "lifespan" of a connection is in
this case.
Servers tend to sip from the accept queue in a seperate thread
or approximate such behavior. Therefore we have two time-frames,
the incoming connection acceptq one and the one that actually
deals with the established state data transation. You're talking
about the latter, and the behavior in question is about the
former.
I really haven't seen a convincing argument yet to change the behavior
here, I think it's sane but I'm ready to be convinced otherwise :-)
