Reviewing backport at a high level, am I following correctly?
"forward a failure" here is closing the TCP connection to the client
in response to a presumed keepalive timeout (or crash) at the origin
server, and the browser doesn't go into the same recovery if we do
this on the initial request.
Correct.
