+//! Utility types to support cancellation.
+//!
+//! In a typical IDE use-case, requests and modification happen concurrently, as
+//! in the following scenario:
+//!
+//!   * user types a character,
+//!   * a syntax highlighting process is started
+//!   * user types next character, while syntax highlighting *is still in
+//!     progress*.
+//!
+//! In this situation, we want to react to modification as quckly as possible.
+//! At the same time, in-progress results are not very interesting, because they
+//! are invalidated by the edit anyway. So, we first cancel all in-flight
+//! requests, and then apply modification knowing that it won't intrfere with
+//! any background processing (this bit is handled by salsa, see
+//! `BaseDatabase::check_canceled` method).
