Description

Hi Brian,
I'm looking for a solution for storing streamsubscriptions in my middleware. How I can store the streamsubscription and cancel them if i need too?

Especially in flutter_architecture_samples/firestore_redux/lib/middleware/store_todos_middleware.dart line 66 / 67 there is a `listen()` which returns a subscription but it is not stored? How do you cancel the subscription?

In the E-Mail from Nilay couple days ago, there was a suggestion for using streamsubscriptions and canceling them.

http://dart-lang.github.io/linter/lints/cancel_subscriptions.html
```
class B {
StreamSubscription _subscriptionB;
void init(Stream stream) {
_subscriptionB = stream.listen((_) {});
}
void dispose(filename) {
_subscriptionB.cancel();
}
}
```

And I need in my code the fully control of the subscriptions. I would very appreciate your answer.

Cheers, :)

Research direction

Start with flutter_architecture_samples/firestore_redux/lib/middleware/store_todos_middleware.dart, especially the listen() calls on lines 66–67. Trace the middleware's lifecycle and determine where the returned StreamSubscriptions should be retained and cancelled; done means the subscriptions can be explicitly controlled without changing the sample's todo behavior.
