Abort XHR in progress

[dotBits]

Wouldn't be useful a method that aborts a specific xhr request?

[David-Hari]

I'd like that too.

Hi, by design it is not possible to cancel a HTTP request. It should be possible to fake this behavior by rejecting the request promise but it will be faked (the request will be performed anyway).

[David-Hari]

It's certainly possible to cancel an XMLHttpRequest.
I know this library uses the new request stuff, but I'd hope it were possible there too.

@David-Hari yes, the abort method should be used
