> This bug is similar to TS-3054, but, on the client connection.
> Currently, when ATS sees a transaction inactivity timeout on the client 
> connection, it just closes the connection and releases the resources. As long 
> as the socket is still active, it might be better to attempt sending back a 
> HTTP status code to the client. For example, the use case might be a client 
> sending a POST request with content-length, but doesn't send the body. ATS 
> times out and aborts the connection without notifying the client. Even 
> though, the inactivity timeout might indicate that the client connection is 
> "dead", it's possible that the body that the client sent was "lost" somewhere 
> on the network before reaching ATS. It's possible that the status code 
> response may never make it to the client for the same reasons, but, 
> nevertheless, it's worth to give it a try.
> Some things to keep in mind are if the response headers have already been 
> sent to the client, sending a status code is not possible.
