While these words are fun for a brainstorming session (I liked void, I
would certainly not know what to do with it...), they do not add clarity
in a real life situation. We need usual wording, used everywhere, no
user is dedicated to Openerp only.

Cancel means close without saving almost everywhere. like save | cancel,
or Save | close, there is also OK |Cancel, but mostly in a dialogue.

I think that the "faulty" action is "set object to Cancelled status";
this shall be addressed. Why not just use something like I just wrote:

Set [object] to cancelled state/status

I would also avoid "close" and "cancel" put together as they are still
confusing.

thank you,
Bogdan
