Hello.

I am investigating way of usage of Channel API and as I see, it use 
GoogleTalk-like messaging internally (making request ot 
'talkgadget.google.com').

So one of the first thought I've got was: if in API I'm using only 
client-id, what happen if client with some client-id disconnects, I'll send 
some messages to that 'client-id' and then connects again with same 
'client-id'?

In normal messaging (like Google Talk) I'll rechieve all messages, sent to 
me when I was offline. And according to some messages in discussions (GAE, 
GAE/J) I've found that application is changed for two hours after we create 
a channel.

But actual expirements showed that there is no reall 'offline messages'. I 
can send messages to clients that are actually offline (closed window) 
without errors and there is even no possibility to know if channel was 
closed or is there any connected channels with some 'client-id' (or list 
them).

So there is a question: Is there any plans to make Channel API supports 
offline *OR *adding events to track actual disconnection of clients (without 
need of hand-made pinging as it is now) or other ways to handle 
disconnection/reconnection of clients?
