Manually cancelling a transaction #381

Description

@AgeManning

I have experienced this on mainnet with Siren.

I sent a transaction, the wallet sent the transaction and reports the hash to siren. However the transaction got lost and didn't end up on chain.

This can happen more often for people using flashbots or another RPC where the builder may decide not to include the transaction.

The transaction will never be included in a block. Most wallets allow you to ignore this and create another transaction with the same nonce, which will overwrite the lost transaction.

However Siren just sits in limbo. The transaction will never resolve. I think it would be useful to have a manual button to cancel and retry the transaction so that we can progress.
