I'm new to Channels. I have a Downloader, which has a sequential BlockingQueue of download tasks. I need to enqueue, remove and view pending tasks. This is trivial with BlockingQueue.

If I move this to a Channel, the sequential nature of it creates a queue, however how do I remove a enqueued or view all pending tasks?

Do I need to keep track of the enqueues myself now?

@Vsevolod Tolstopyatov [JB] Is that the kind of capabilities you'd add to "State of the art channels"?

Nope, we’re planning to preserve the API in its current form.

What will change is significantly reduced DEX size, decreased allocation rate and also complete correctnes and linearizability

Soo.. I have keep track of manaully in a Queue, make it thread safe, and possibly reorder it since I dont controll the other of receives?

To remove, add some sort of a wasRemoved flag, and check it upon receivng and exit early?
