Yeah, it would.  I'm not sure that it is something that we should do or not.

Yeah, I was thinking of generalizing it to some kind of method call on
the IO service that passes the channel and gives the IO service a
chance to abort the load.  We have the http-on-modify-request
notification that can be used to implement this today for HTTP, and
I've wanted to extend that to a generic on-modify-request notification
sent by all channels (or at least most channels).
