Bar Harel <bzvi7...@gmail.com> added the comment: I don't think so. Having shield not cancel immediately but rather wait and cancel will cause long timed shielded operations to stall the task cancellation, usually for no good. This isn't the general case. However, adding another function which does so might just be a good idea. I think another parameter to shield to choose cancellation time will clutter the function call.
