If by "break" you mean "close cleanly", sure. But there's little harm in that in general, since UAs already have to know to start new connections if one fails (and another isn't available from the pool). And I would think that being able to close connections could be useful in some cases. Alternately, if folks feel strongly about this, we could prevent "close" from being added to the Connection header. Mark.
