I've done some extensions:
-Improve the corresponding comment on the implications why this is useful
-added a new simple_dialog text to explain what's really going on (simply using the WTAP truncated packet message was a bit misleading)
Given that it's really not cancelling the load - it doesn't undo all the stuff done as part of the load - should the button say "Stop" rather than "Cancel"?
Also, do other places that read files, e.g. the file merge code, check for the stop button and stop the operation?
