Re: [fetch] Aborting a fetch (#27)

> Promise cancellation isn't planned to be like this at all.

I'm not sure where this assertion is coming from, but there's a whole bunch of messages in this thread that directly contradict what you're saying.

All the messages I've posted here about being concerned about cancelable-promise having "action-at-a-distance" characteristics are because of the many assertions here that just one promise way down the end of the chain could call `cancel()` and that propagates all the way up to the `fetch(..)` instance to cancel it, meaning any other peer promises would be "affected" in that they wouldn't get to wait for `fetch(..)` to finish.

The concern @appden echoes is quite clearly evident from the majority of messages in this thread on that topic.
