           Summary: [next] GCancellables for all async calls
    Classification: Unclassified

In the old generated APIs, we had weak_objects, making sure that we can avoid
calling a disposed-of object. In the new GAsyncResult world, we don't have
that, making life more complicated. The solution is to use GCancellable, I
suggest that in every API that we have that uses GAsyncResult style async, we
should also offer the possibility of passing a GCancellable.
