It does, but suppose you want the information that is already there? 
That could be the case for `grep-find' for example. Why not bind C-g to 
something like this in those buffers (or globally)?

(defun keyboard-process-quit()
 "Delete buffer process if there is one or signal a `quit' condition."
 (interactive)
 (if (get-buffer-process (current-buffer))
     (delete-process (current-buffer))
   (keyboard-quit)))
