When the wallet is rescanned at startup in bitcoind, there seems to be no way to interrupt that in a clean way (other than forcefully killing the process).

The same happens when you attempt to import a private key. There's a 'X' button (GUI), but it does not stop/interrupt it.

The rpc should probably warm up and accept requests for abortrescan and stop
