I've worked on-and-off to make some helper mechanisms for pinging. What I have so far is available to look at here: https://github.com/jberger/Mojo-WebSocket-Pinger .
I think the problem with core functionality is making it generic but still useful. There are all kinds of things you might want it to do. Do you want a callback to trigger when the pong returns? How often should it ping? The patterns for doing so aren't completely obvious (which is why I haven't settled on anything and released that module to CPAN). Anyway, I'd appreciate any input and maybe we can get something to CPAN sooner than later.
