How can I cancel a running Sitecore Job?

Question

How can I cancel a running Sitecore Job? There doesn't seem to be a method for this other than JobManager.RemoveJob(), and that doesn't seem to do anything other than remove it from the list of actively running jobs. It doesn't seem to actively cancel anything. Am I missing something here?

As far as I'm aware you can't stop running jobs, except for resetting IIS or changing your web.config I'm afraid.
