That would be a very significant amount of work for us to implement. We are using Plone 2.5.1 which doesn't support anything over Zope 2.9.x.
We are also using zope 2.9.5. I am assuming that this is the same problem as Alan's since we have the log message filled with the warning signs below. We are still waiting for a copy of iptables and hosts.allow and host.deny to analyze.

In ZODB 3.7, I added an attempt to do this sort of keep-alive check. Now, clients attempt to send an empty message to the server every 30 seconds during periods of inactivity. Of course, I couldn't actually test that this fixed anything, as I didn't have a way to reproduce the problem. I didn't mention this earlier in the thread, because it didn't sound to me like this was the problem Alan was having. Alan said he was using Zope 2.9 and this ZODB 3.6.
