Would you use a kill operation in the way you describe above if you knew
that it had, say, a 1% chance of causing a database-wide PANIC each time
you used it?

The odds of a problem are probably a great deal less than 1%, especially
if the backend is sitting idle.  But they're not nil, and I don't think
we have the resources to make them nil in this release cycle.
Therefore I'm uneager to provide this feature simply because of "it
might be nice to have" arguments.  There's a lot of other stuff that is
higher on the priority list, IMHO anyway.

Can we keep the cancel query function and just lose the kill one?
