They can and they should.  AFAICT, most currently do not.  I am sorry
to admit that JAMin still does not.  Some day I'll fix that.

Of course, there is a race condition when everyone reconnects at once.
Some ports may not be available yet, depending on the order other
clients register them.  Having a session manager handle the reconnects
might make some of those issues easier, I'm not sure.
