Re: [web-nfc] Need ability to cancel a message push

If new messages update pending ones, then given the max. 10s timeout, 
there's less need for a cancel. There is though a bit of a security 
worry that there's up to a 10s window when data could be sent to an 
unauthorised party if the user is distracted after initiating a send, 
with no way to cancel.

I agree that the semantics of pushing an updated message during the 
data transfer period is less important. Queuing or rejection may be 
the best choice, because a delayed pushMessage return would be 
unexpected for an asynchronous command, and may lock-up the UI.
