+ Outgoing connections are shared between clients (if there are more
+ than one) and closing the client that initiated the outgoing connection
+ does not affect the connection between &my-app; and the server unless
+ the client's request hasn't been completed yet. If the outgoing connection
+ is idle, it will not be closed until either <application>Privoxy's</application>
+ or the server's timeout is reached. While it's open, the server knows
+ that the system running &my-app; is still there.
