Hi, 

I was hoping to discuss making it possible to 'cancel' a kernel request. Or 
at least ask if anybody else has thought of this and why or why not it's 
possible. 

I didn't want to make a JEP 
<https://github.com/jupyter/enhancement-proposals> just yet as thought 
there might already be a discussion around this.

This is in reference to problems my team is having with auto complete and 
IPython:
https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-python/issues/9596

I ran some profiling when the problem occurs and it looks like we're in the 
middle of waiting for the completion request to return before we can 
execute a cell.

This might be solved a number of ways:
- Modify Jedi/IPython to support a timeout for completion
- Skip doing autocompletion in VS code from Jupyter
- Provide a way to cancel a kernel request

The cancel idea sounds the most interesting to me.

Any feedback would be great.

Thanks.
