yes, if transaction state still exists, it makes sense to generate a
delayed cancel.  

but if transaction does not exist anymore, i don't think it makes sense
by a atateful proxy to statelessly forward any replies.  in other
worlds, if in my proxy i always t_relay requests, i would like to be
able to tell the proxy not to never statelessly forward any replies.
