Abandon semantics also require the server to defer returning
return results of operations issues subsequent to the abandon
operation until the operation being abandoned has been
abandoned or has completed.

For this reason, I have been considering specifying a new
abandon operation which, like the X.500 abandon operation,
has a response.
