   I think this is far more than PR - it's more of an AIP. It's been raised by a number of people and there are similar discussions. For example we had a discussion https://github.com/apache/airflow/discussions/27325 about the very thing. Seems super useful, but IMHO this really needs a deliberate discussion and it needs not a "feature" but Airflow Improvement Proposal - https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AIRFLOW/Airflow+Improvement+Proposals - we should discuss the approach, users, permissions, whether to make it plugs into current Sensors, Defferables, how to handle asyc/io approach, how we shoudl communicate between the "sensor" and webserver, how to handle cancellations, whether we should introduce separate state (this was proposed in  https://github.com/apache/airflow/discussions/27325 . how it should be surfaced in the UI, etc. etc.
   
   I think at this moment there are more questions than answers and since it is crossing all layers in airflow, I think this is quite a big Proposal to make, not a feature.  
   
   So rather than openinig a PR (or even opening an issue) I think if someone wants to implement it, starting with discussing it in devlist and writing an Airflow Improvement Proposal with detailed discussion about the design is a good idea (and it is very welcome - seems that this is highly requested feature). 
   
   Maybe @dylanbstorey or @cdabella from the other thread would like to pick it up ? Or maybe someone else will soon ? Hopefully we will get it soon.
   
   For now - I am converting it into a discussion, it's far too big and not defined to be a feature. (but again it would be a welcome addition).
