[Bug 16801] New: It's unclear here and elsewhere what it means to "cancel the navigation", and what effects it will have e.g. on the parser (presumably it will be like getting EOF?). Could this be clarified, perhaps by rewriting in terms of the abort algorithm?

           Summary: It's unclear here and elsewhere what it means to
                    "cancel the navigation", and what effects it will have
                    e.g. on the parser (presumably it will be like getting
                    EOF?). Could this be clarified, perhaps by rewriting
                    in terms of the abort algorithm?
