This is expected and desired.

This is a bug though, setting the migration speed should, based on the
fact that  we want to use the global migration speed flag for disks too
, apply also to the disk migration streams.

This is again expected, the blockjobs are started by the migration thus
when you cancel the migration we also need to cancel the blockjobs.

This is okay, but we could take it a sa feature request to allow tuning
of the individual blockjobs.

This is expected. Same as above, we dodn't want to allow users to
control this. In contrast to 'q4' I'd refuse a RFE to allow cancelling
of individual jobs.
