WinBox check for device after disconnect

Hello, would it be possible to add the following feature into next release of WinBox:
When you get disconnected from the Mikrotik device for any reason (for example after initiating Reboot), have the WinBox test the connection to the device every second, so as soon as the device comes back online, we can connect back to it.

What I usualy do in that situation is fire up tcping that does that, like in the following example:

Basicaly, WinBox could emulate that functionality.

It depends that action i did, maybe sometimes it will take like 15 minutes for it to get back.

Bonus point if they implement "beep" sound when device comes back online, so you dont have to babysit the WinBox window
