And the shortcut is added:

A <-> C [media frames],

Then, if C disappears off the network, then B would know it (via the
usual mechanisms, PING/PONG, etc), and would be able to notify A (and
vice-versa).  It seems like something to test in practice, though.

I don't know enough about IAX2 to know whether this is true or not...
under what circumstances are PING frames generated at all? They
certainly aren't mini frames, so I can't see how A would ever send one
directly to C.

This is a valid concern... unless B (the machine in the middle) is
sending PINGs to C and will notice that it has disappeared, then kill
entire bridge.
chan_iax2 and all IAX2 implementations send PING every few seconds; 10 to 60 seconds or so, depending on the implementation. chan_iax2 also sends these LAGRQ things, but they're pretty useless, and really ought to go.
