> Currently, replication tasks can be cancelled, awkwardly. Compaction
> tasks and view building tasks cannot, short of restarting the server
> or remote shell access to the erland VM.
> Provide a consistent and simple API for cancelling any running
> task. This API will also provide status/progress information where
> appropriate and pause/resume where possible too.
