I fully understand that this needs to be fixed, it's just that the way
you're proposing is not a good way to do it.

Nope, it's never ok to block on write.

I think it *is* good to wait for the response. I've seen devices which
break if you disconnect the transport without waiting for OBEX
Disconnect command response and there could also be devices which
exhibit similar behavior for Abort.

I think this needs to be fixed on a higher layer than gobex as gobex
already provides a mechanism for waiting for the completion (or
cancellation) of a command.
