"Snowflake is off. Could not connect to the bridge."

I checked my Snowflake proxy in my Firefox, and it told me "Snowflake is off. Could not connect to the bridge." and gave me the option to retry.

I clicked retry, and it connected and seemed happy again.

Was it going to retry on its own at some point?

This is either a UX bug, "it should tell me it will retry so I don't get anxious that it's broken forever, and maybe the button should be called 'retry now'" or a more serious snowflake bug, "we have a bunch of snowflakes that gave up and we don't know about it". Hopefully the former. :)
