Connections to database servers should not be lost routinely.

If anything should retry the query, then it would be the mysql
client. The proxymap can't make such decisions (for example, it
makes no sense to retry after a read error from a local file).
And in fact, the mysql client does implement retry logic. It retries
if you have more than one mysql server configured. Perhaps you
can specify the same server multiple times.
