i agree, but i would still prefer to be able to specify the
on-connect-timeout-only too,
there are some cases where i do not want to repeat even a GET request,
and generally it is a safer bet for me to not-repeat anything that
already 'reached'
the upstream.

you see, my specific problem is that i have multiple upstreams, and i want nginx
to go to the next upstream when an upstream's socket-backlog is full.
and currently
i am unable to do this...
