[1.23] Ping on 'sessions' stops everything (minor)
 
When using 'ping' command for a bad address, everything halts for the time of the ping, and you have to wait... (annoying if there is a typo on the address/port).

Since it's only a minor annoyance rather than a critical bug, it probably won't be fixed until the new year.

That said, I'm getting some very strange results when I try to ping MUDs with that command - -90ms, 500ms, 20ms.

Also keep in mind than many ISPs and routers block ICMP ping messages these days because of denial-of-service attacks.
