If that's really the answer, that's pretty disappointing.  PuSH isn't
worth as much to me if I still have to poll client-side.

I could maybe stomach infrequently resubscribing, "just to make sure",
but if I did that, then I'd want to know that if I did miss updates in
between resubscribes, that I'd get a backlog pushed to me of any
missed updates.
