@reisenberger you would get this now if you use Polly timeout instead of relying on HTTPClient, right? Given the Polly integration.

@NickCraver You've already talked to corefx folks about having HttpClient do this instead of trying to wrap it here?

@glennc @NickCraver Yes. Polly TimeoutPolicy intentionally wraps the cancellation exception in a TimeoutRejectedException if specifically distinguishing its timeout to be the cause of cancellation, so that calling code can disambiguate that from other cancellation, and for UX.

If users choose to use Polly TimeoutPolicy with the new PolicyHttpMessageHandler in HttpClientFactory, they can get this experience.

We're moving this to corefx repo as we don't control how HttpClient behaves.
