@aledsage Thanks for thorough comments. I'll review this afternoon and
revert with whether to merge or not.
One high level comment: `Task` instances _should_ be left running, even if
immediate execution is requested, because someone else might subsequently ask
for that value in a non-immediate context. If we cancelled after immediate
execution then the subsequent request would fail. This isn't a **leak** but an
implication of supporting `Task` evaluation (and for that reason I think we
want to prefer `TaskFactory` evaluation). I _think_ this addresses many of
your comments; will look closer after lunch.
