Description

## Feature Request

It looks like we can activate a retry on some network errors, though I didn't find a way to retry automatically on some 5xx status code. It would be nice to set it from the driver constructor.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or driver entry point. Start by locating the existing network-error retry configuration and driver constructors, then determine how selected 5xx responses should be configured and verified; done means callers can enable the requested status-code retries through a driver constructor.
