Assessment

This issue has not been assessed yet.

Description

Right now the only cancelable promise we have is the prompt elements, which means that if the modal is closed, only the prompt elements be canceled.

uncancelable

This kind of illustrates the problem.

  • I trigger a signing request
  • Instead of completing the request, I close the modal in the web-ui-renderer.
  • The promise waiting for it doesn’t cancel, it still is processing, which is why when you see me close the WAX window, all the sudden the error pops up.

The entire web ui renderer would have to be refactored into a cancelable promise to resolve this without a prompt. That’s the right solution I think, but is going to be a significant rewrite to pull off, which I don’t want to have to do at this very moment due to the design work going on.
