In fact yesterday I lost connection while I had two ssh sessions active. Later I noticed they were still there so I killed them both. Still 'last' shows I still have those two processes open, but 'w' only shows one. Had I not killed the two last nite they'd probably still be there. This is with 2.2.6-RELEASE.
