Re: [whatwg/fetch] Request's associated element (#912)

> How long do you need the element reference for? Could this be something where we ensure everyone invokes "fetch" from the "main thread" and before "fetch" returns (and goes in parallel) it's able to drop the reference?

We'd need the element's reference for longer than the lifetime of the fetch, as the reported entries are likely to be looked at after that. That is at least true if we want to maintain a link from the entries themselves to the element in question (which would be the most ergonomic solution, assuming we can pull it off).
