Description

### Description

For latency-ridden connections it may be ideal to have the option to cancel sending mid-flight. At least as a last ditch effort to hide your spelling mistakes.

### Version information

- **Platform**: web (in-browser)
- **Browser**: Chrome 58
- **OS**: Windows 10
- **URL**: riot.im/develop

Research direction

The issue identifies the web client at riot.im/develop but names no source files, tests, or entry points. First clarify what cancellation should do for a message already in flight and how completion should be verified, then trace the web client's current sending flow. Done should include an agreed cancellation behavior and coverage for the specified case.
