Vert.x - how it deals with: proxy, connection restarts, transactions? I also cannot find any table as for which websocket servers. browser it supports and how it falls into other transport than websocket depending on the server?

Vert.x implements IO protocol stack for SockJS Javascript library, it is a server. Your javascript code relies on SockJS library to choose proper protocol for communication with server (websockets or XHR or JSONP or SSE fallback), e.g.
Polling transports are used as a fallback for old browsers and hosts behind restrictive proxies.
Vert.x also has a built-in client to other websocket servers. Take a look at the websockets documentation
