"`fundchannel_cancel` is a lower level RPC command. It allows channel opener to cancel a channel before funding broadcast with a connected peer.",
"",
"Note that the funding transaction MUST NOT be broadcast before `fundchannel_cancel`. Broadcasting transaction before `fundchannel_cancel` WILL lead to unrecoverable loss of funds.",
"",
"If `fundchannel_cancel` is called after `fundchannel_complete`, the remote peer may disconnect when command succeeds. In this case, user need to connect to remote peer again before opening channel."
