I really dislike the idea of automatically reconnecting a socket. 
Mainly because I'm not sure that you can have sane universal semantics 
for what to do while it's disconnected.

I would prefer a mechanism that allowed a user to manually reconnect a 
character device by basically reconnecting the full character device. 
IOW, reconnecting to tcp:localhost:1025 is the same thing as changing to 
unix:/tmp/foo.sock AFAICT.
