 This is really just highlighting a fix that I found useful:

 database-error-mysql-server-has-gone-away-for-query/

 I believe by making this a core thing, by just hooking in with DB_TIMEOUT,
 this can help people tweak their configurations more easily.

 Code could be:

 if ( define( 'DB_TIMEOUT' ) AND DB_TIMEOUT > 0 )
     $this->query("SET SESSION wait_timeout=" . DB_TIMEOUT);
