Description

I think this should be brought back up #3 and #35. Looks like resque is using heart beats (see prune_dead_workers):

Research direction

Start by reviewing the related issues #3 and #35, then compare Jesque's worker handling with Resque's prune_dead_workers implementation at lib/resque/worker.rb#L587. The expected heartbeat and dead-worker behavior must be clarified before work can be considered complete.
