The accumulator function returns whether the signal emission should be aborted. Returning %TRUE will continue with the signal emission. Returning %FALSE will abort the current emission. Since 2.62, returning %FALSE will skip to the CLEANUP stage. In this case, emission will occur as normal in the CLEANUP stage and the handler's return value will be accumulated.
The signal accumulator is a special callback function that can be used to collect return values of the various callbacks that are called during a signal emission.
The signal accumulator is specified at signal creation time, if it is left %NULL, no accumulation of callback return values is performed. The return value of signal emissions is then the value returned by the last callback.
