This looks so good! I have two questions

1. What happens if the tunnels breaks? Does it retry instantly? Is there any sort of exponential backlog time? Just wondering if the server is down, if it would spike the cpu or would be gentle (while still fast enough)

2. Would you be adding support for Socks Proxy? The ssh command is quite simple, and it is as useful as regular remote and local tunnels.

Thank you! Yes, there is an exponential backoff strategy for reconnection attempts. Supporting SOCKS sounds like a nice idea, I'll look into it!

I think there are a couple packages out there for using Websockets to proxy a tcp connection, and some of them support SOCKS. I think they all overload that Dialup function as a generic way of opening connections
