 What's the use case?

In case the network connection goes down (for example the ADSL dies), the
WebSocket client could not realize of it until it attempts to send a new WS
frame (it happens sometimes because there is not a TCP disconnection).

By sending periodical WS Ping frames from client to server, the client could
realize of the network issue in a reasonable time.

As a suggestion, the WS API could include an interval for sending Ping frames
to the server:

var myWebSocket = new WebSocket(ws://some-domain.com);
myWebSocket.set_monitor_interval(120);
