I assume the idea here is that, rather than having a (presently
unused) generic early stop request mechanism provided by the workgroup
framework, any workgroup that needs an early stop mechanism should
roll its own. Are there any that already do so, and could have been
using the generic mechanism?
The changes look ok.
