I think if you work via cursors or views it could be handled similar to WLAN dropping connection. In our fwk (at least via cursoradapter, older stuff not tested as the stuff we updated last only used cursoradapter) you can set the behaviour to close the connection to server side tables after access and it will automatically reopen on refresh or tableupdate.
