Radu Teodorescu commented on ARROW-15473:
-----------------------------------------

Cancel is certainly helpful (assuming it does a direct client side disconnect 
and release the threads blocked on read).

The scenario I was having in mind is one where the same connection is shared by 
multiple objects potentially outside of the control of the client shutdown,

For example imagine a number of worker threads processing some long lived 
streams with arbitrary termination logic and we just want to have a central 
"red button" call that terminates the FlightConnection and that automatically 
disconnects all those streams (just like having a number of threads sharing the 
same TCP connection - when the connection goes down they are all disconnected).

> We want a mechanism to close DoExchange streams from client side in case of 
> long running connections. This would be handy for testing and in case e.g. 
> user wants to disconnect.
