Are there established ways to convert various flavors of future (beyond CompletionStage.asDeferred()) into Deferred for use in suspend functions? If not, I can always adapt code from asDeferred, but if there’s something supported out there, might as well use it

There are a bunch of coroutines adapters for different kinds of futures/promises.
I don’t see any problem to convert any future to Deferred or, even better to just suspend function: yourFuture.await()

Unfortunately this example doesn’t cover cancellation case

Hm, interesting. Perhaps adding await() as you suggest is the way to go.
