Thanks for the write up. One thing I noticed in your code snippets - combination of log.Fatal and defer calls. Defer calls are never called after log.Fatal -> github.com/golang/go/issues/15402#...
Good catch and thanks for letting me know! I do know this but I seem to let that bad habit creep in for examples and such. But here it is a bigger issue because properly closing connections is very important. I will update the examples shortly!
I guess I didn't realize this is a bit of a pain to do. Not terrible, but easy to miss. Basically only main should call Fatal or os.Exit and no defers should be used. More generally as long as no function in the stack above this call should use a deferred function.
