Thanks Tim, for the hint on failover-transport. I wasn't aware it could be used with a single-instance broker. But I tested it now, and that seems to fully solve the reconnection-problem if the broker is "bumped", which makes the whole setup easier and cleaner to fix, and more robust, of course. Very nice, thanks! :)
