+ Rejects an inbound transaction. This can be used by the receiver of an account to
+ cancel a transaction, nullifying its effect. This basically creates a correcting
+ entry that voids the original transaction. Henceforth, the /history must show
+ the original transaction as "cancelled+" or "cancelled-" for creditor and debitor respectively.
