Is there anything that is currently blocking this patch? I'd quite
like it to get into PG16.
Especially since I ran into another use case that I would want to use
this patch for recently: Adding an async cancel function to Python
it's psycopg3 library. This library exposes both a Connection class
and an AsyncConnection class (using python its asyncio feature). But
one downside of the AsyncConnection type is that it doesn't have a
cancel method.
I ran into this while changing the PgBouncer tests to use python. And
the cancellation tests were the only tests that required me to use a
ThreadPoolExecutor instead of simply being able to use async-await
style programming:
