Is it possible yes. Is it simple, no.   Depends on what the command is 
and when.  You may confuse a transport which uses aborts - and you're 
also mandating the transport peek into the pass-through command to check 
for abort so that is can honor the # of outstanding aborts supported by 
the controller.

I agree with Johannes. this is an ugly thing to do . The first question 
I had is - how do you even know what the command and its CID value is ?  
Also, many devices won't actually even do aborts.
