Review Comment:
   The connection can be automatically restored, but the behavior of watch is 
unobservable, and sometimes watch is incapacitated, but it still does not 
actively quit. There is no API to actively know which watchers are currently 
available and what is the state of those watchers.
   This is a complete black box for its applicators, the entire documentation 
of etcd mentions that its connections are self-healing and watch will not lose 
any data, but it does happen in our environment.
   
   I think this is really necessary, and if you don't think it's appropriate, 
we can use a less expensive way than sync requests, which is to implement it 
using etcd client's internal connection state monitor, 
client.getActiveConnection(), which will not initiate the request, but still 
get the connection state.
   **IMHO, for the uncertain behavior in the etcd client (it is indeed a black 
box), where all the grpc stream details are hidden and the documentation does 
not match the actual behavior, an active health checking mechanism independent 
of the internal mechanism is a must.**
