* In order to make it safe and easy to connect handlers there

* An example of how to us this:
- * |[
- * /<!-- -->* Make sure we don't do any unnecessary work if already cancelled *<!-- -->/
- * if (g_cancellable_set_error_if_cancelled (cancellable))
+ * |[<!-- language="C" -->

+ * // Set up all the data needed to be able to handle cancellation

* my_data = my_data_new (...);
*
* id = 0;

+ * // cancellable operation here...
*
* g_cancellable_disconnect (cancellable, id);

- * /<!-- -->* cancelled_handler is never called after this, it
- * * is now safe to free the data *<!-- -->/

g_cancellable_get_current (void)

* If cancellable is currently in use by any cancellable operation
* then the behavior of this function is undefined.

+ * Note that it is generally not a good idea to reuse an existing
+ * cancellable for more operations after it has been cancelled once,
+ * as this function might tempt you to do. The recommended practice
+ * is to drop the reference to a cancellable after cancelling it,
+ * and let it die with the outstanding async operations. You should
+ * create a fresh cancellable for further async operations.
