Crashing is bad, silent data corruption is worse. Is there truly no
defense against that? If not, why should anyone rely on this?
If we receive an response for which we don't have a started request, we
know that something is wrong. Couldn't we in just reset the connection
in this case? We don't have to pretend nothing has happened and
continuing normally. This would avoid a host crash and would not create
(more) data corruption. Or I am just too naive?
This is actually a sensible solution.
Please send a patch for that.

Cheers,

Hannes
