      The client does not close Status connections after receiving the first Response packet, instead, the server can spam the connection with multiple packets to animate the MOTD.

      Example is attached. This behavior may be intended, but it seems very accidental considering the favicon field must be a PNG, and cannot be APNG or GIF.

      This can also be used to keep connections open on the client, potentially exhausting resources. This use has not been tested and may not work very well.
