Exceptions for kopf on event for network connectivity delayed / issues

[kutysam]

Question

I have been using kopf.on.event('', 'v1', 'pods') to listen to pods event and then I will do some operations to the events.
However, the issue comes when network is unstable.

One way to replicate it is,

1. Load kopf.on.event('', 'v1', 'pods'), on a very low traffic cluster
2. We will see lots of events coming in.
3. Wait till events noise become minimal (as in no more new events)
4. Turn off wifi to simulate network connectivity issues, no exception is thrown.
5. When wifi is turned on, yeap, it resumes.

(If you turn off your wifi when an event is coming in, exception can be seen)

My aim is to do a restart when a network connectivity issue persists after a period of time.
Some possible ways:

1. Have a health check to probe this connectivity every few seconds.
2. Monitor for exceptions and do some logic based on them.

I've played around with some backoff etc. but I could not get it to work well.
I've tried upgraded from 0.25 to 0.27 but I don't see any exceptions.
