    Heartbeats exists to ensure that connection is alive, active and operable, but not to keep it forever (this is actually should be done with timeout=infinity). We cannot relay on protocol level keep-alive because it actually doesn't works as everyone expects and only cause additional hangs (default may be minute to hours). Application level keep-alive is the only way to instantly figure out that things went wrong and time to reconnect. Websockets are effective in unreliable networks because of such approach (ping/pong).
    
    Otherwise we have quite strange case when you do request `GET /db/_changes?feed=continuous&heartbeat=1000&timeout=60000` expecting that timeout will work as usually, but actually it get ignored. That's the first case. Another one is that helps to workaround COUCHDB-2912 issue.

    the heartbeat exists to keep a connection alive so is this a sensible thing to do?
