Re: [fetch] XHR option to trigger busy indicators (#19)

>Most of the problems you list are problems with giving devs the XHR API; not with a busy indicator.

It is not meaningful to blame XHR or developers here, because even the brand new Fetch API won't make busy indicator easier to handle.

The problem __is__ the explicit state management. UAs already do good jobs at managing the state of busy indicator, why not reuse them? So I suggested `FetchObserver` and `.affectBusyIndicator`, and I believe this solution is hard to get wrong even if you copy-paste other's code blindly. `FetchObserver` also opens a door to many possibilities.
