Cancel contribution

In the email sent after submitting a contribution, it might be a good idea to have a link to cancel the contribution. I submitted one recently and afterward realized that the plot hole wasn't solid, and I found away around it. I tried to cancel it, but found no way to do so.

But I was expecting to be able to provide a screenshot to justify the addition, and found NO such option on the Contribution page.
