summary: Reconnect automatically if connection goes down
class: wish: This is a request for an enhancement.
difficulty: fun: Just needs tuits, and not many of them.
depends: reuse-windows disconnect
priority: low: We aren't sure whether to fix this or not.

Some people would like for PuTTY to have an option to automatically attempt to re-establish a session if it goes does unexpectedly.

We probably need to be able to reliably detect when disconnections were clean or not first. We'd probably also want to re-use the same window.

(Some people would like for us to remember the password so they don't have to type it again, but we won't be doing that.)
