That doesn't seem like a proper outcome — dismissing user’s data shouldn’t be something we encourage in general. Imagine that the user has been spending a lot of time to get the perfect picture, only to get it randomly trashed by the original invokator. I think once the external app is up and running, canceling a pending operation should have no direct effect on the external app. It might be OK to cancel the invokation of the callbacks. Dom
