Re: [fetch] Aborting a fetch (#27)

You never addressed my earlier concern than a general implicitly-creating-promise type mechanism, like `async function`, provides no clear way to tell the promise "make me cancelable" in any useful way. 

`fetch(..)` can do so by adding some explicit parameter to its API, which it automatically funnels into its promise. But a general `async function` cannot, not without ugly side-effects on composability/signature design.
