I share @ChristopherSchultz's opinion. It is in line with https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-thomson-hybi-http-timeout-01.html#rfc.section.2. If the client has not requested a keep alive, the else clause is never evaluated. The condition is that the has send a `keep-alive` and either a timeout is set or the timeout is negative which means the connection can be held open forever.
