Hi Juha,

Yes, I understand that the proxy doesn't need to care. That's absolutely
correct. In fact, it should be the most common scenario.

I think the point is that some proxies WANT to know. They want to use
the keep-alive to keep tract of the availability of the UA without
waiting for a request to fail.

I don't want to debate if this is a good idea or not, but I believe this
is why they want this.
