Oh, yea.. well.. maybe I wasn't clear.. I didn't mean an application
should be able to fully stop it.. only hint g-p-m that it needs more
time. It's up to g-p-m to decide whether or how long it decides to honor
the NAK... Hence the talk about the timeouts...

Btw, this is all me rambling.. and I do ramble a lot :-) ... we all need
to talk Richard into doing this as it's his call as the g-p-m
maintainer...
