[issue43991] asyncio lock does not get released after task is canceled

[Jonathan Schweder]

Jonathan Schweder <jonathanschweder at gmail.com> added the comment:

a.niederbuehl tasks are free of context, meaning that the task does not know what was done inside it, and by consequence is impossible to know when or not release a lock. This is by design and normally in these cases you need to be aware of the lock, by for example checking if the lock was released before cancelling the task.
