Re: "short circuit" activity

Is this really not supported or am I just not explaining it correctly?
 I think what I'm asking for is a simple workflow, which I think I've
seen in shark, but I could be wrong.

Let's say I have a document workflow

When the process is started, 2 activities are opened:
1) acquire document
2) waive document requirement

if #2 happens, then process should be completed and #1 is no longer
open.  This is not supported in Shark?  If so, I'm guessing there's a
better way to represent this concept?

Thanks,
Ben
