Yes, it stops rendering the page since the Exception is not caught by
anything. My problem with their response (and what I asked them with
no response back) is:

1. Where do I do this re-connection. Shoud I surround each DB query
with a rescue block? Seems cumbersome. Or do I monkey-patch it deep in
the Rails framework where the requests are being submitted.
2. For a SELECT I could just re-submit but what about an INSERT or
UPDATE? Did the previous one go through? Should I resubmit those?

To these questions I got NO response from Heroku.
