So that's
1) return an (empty) cancellation object even if the server has not
sent a key, and
2) error out when trying to cancel with an empty object?
That sounds reasonable to me.
Are there any reading along who want us to continue sending an
all-zeroes CancelRequest if the server has not sent a key? Personally,
I don't feel a need to push for that without evidence that it's
actually used, and both RDS Proxy and Cockroach [1] seem to fall in
the "don't support cancellation at all" bucket.
Thanks!
