Early open port means: zopectl restart and reload in your browser 
immediately without getting "Connection refused". Dieter already 
mentioned this use case

Tres mentioned that to me: 'smart' load balancers can probe the server 
and decide that the port is there, but the response time is too high and 
won't include it in the pool again yet, but they can know that the port 
is already open again.
