You can cancel RPC requests. Just define your async interface as returning Request. You can then use the returned Request object to cancel the call. If you do this you also need to be aware your server code would throw an IO error due to the connection being closed by the client. I have a general catch point (doUnexpectedFailure) in my derivation of RemoteServiceServlet that just ignores these errors.
