I got the idea from Apache::DBI, which pings any cached database handlers before invoking your method.
Can't say --- so far, this application is strictly read-only and I'm not using SQLObject for anything other than the connection. If I were writing, the ping would happen before I started the transaction (this is me, falling in the "let me control my own transactions, thank you" camp ;-)

You haven't had any weirdness with transactions?
