I found a small annoyance:
Traceback (most recent call last):

clearly the network is unrechable (which can happen at times, of course)
nothing more after that. I guess this happens when my dynamic ip changes.
Electrum doesn't seem to try to reconnect after that, just sits there.
An unsuspecting gui user might wait indefinitely for some money to show up, for example and start to worry. The gui doesn't show any problem, I think it even shows a "green light" (will observe that again)
