Yep.  TCP is weird that way.  If you waited long enough you probably 
would have gotten the connectionLost to happen.

Use a protocol that has keep-alive packets.  If you send data over the 
connection every so often and require that it comes back in a certain 
amount of time, you can terminate the connection if the link gets 
unacceptably unresponsive.

Alternatively, call self.transport.setTcpKeepAlive(True) from your protocol.
