I left comments on a few patches.

The "err-cancel" and "ActionCancelMode" naming does not describe the
concept fully, since successful block jobs will also behave differently
(waiting for each other to finish before fully completing).
"blockjob-transactions" is the best name I can think of that describes
the full concept rather than focus on just cancellation.

Besides that I'm happy with the QMP interface.
