Swift Async Algorithms 1.1 Planning

[DevAndArtist (Adrian Meister)]

I‘m no longer actively using Swift nowadays, however I wouldn’t mind if APIs were introduced to at least allow opting out of the eager cancellation behavior of the stream family types.

AsyncSequences and cooperative task cancellation

In this thread I would like to discuss the cooperative task cancellation in context of AsyncSequence conforming types. Spoiler ahead, I personally think that some of the exiting async sequences might have an unwanted behavior and are not cooperative, at least from my point of view. With this feedback I would like to spark a discussion regarding how we should evaluate proposed async sequence algorithms and that we should check the existing types which already landed with _Concurrency module. I p…

This is long overdue imo.
