Description

If WebSockets client fails to reconnect several times, deactivate the client and display message "Connection to node broken, reconnecting in ... sec [Reconnect]" (like in GMail). After the delay or if "Reconnect" is clicked, activate the client again. The delay should be increased on every retrial.

Research direction

Start by locating the WebSockets client and its reconnect handling. Verify the current retry behavior, then define the broken-connection message, increasing delay, manual Reconnect action, and client deactivation described here. Done means repeated failures show the message, retries back off, and either the delay or the action restores the client.
