Is there a way to explicitly clean up a channel in the Python API? The concepts document just says, "How gRPC deals with closing down channels is language-dependent." Apparently some language bindings have a "shutdown" method?

How timely of you to ask! We've been thinking about it among ourselves on the team for a while now and are likely to take action (at least in gRPC Python) soon.
