I don't think so.

It keeps the connection alive when you are sending or receiving no traffic on your connection for a while.
There are some routers, proxies and network stacks which would kill idle connections otherwise.

no, we have only reconnect example for MatriX.

AutoResolveConnectServer has nothing to do with reconnection. When AutoResolveConnectServer is true then the library tries to resolve you host from the SRV records. In XMPP SRV records are used to set your hostsnames with priorities. Similar to MX records in mailservers.

Implementing a reconnect logic is pretty simple.When you get an OnClose event then just start a timer which tries to reconnect eg. 10 seconds after you got the close. If this fails again increase the 10 seconds to 20 and try to reconnect.

Usually when the connection fails something is wrong, like lost internet, switching access points etc... So calling Open directly in the OnClose event is not a good idea.
