Re: [whatwg/streams] Cloning (not teeing) a readable stream, via controller tricks (#599)

> Can it be implemented by browsers without being explicitly specced?

I don't think so. You can observe the difference from script. In particular whether `toCloneRequest.body` stays the same or not. If we want it to remain the same, we have to define how that works (and add this new primitive).

If this is already a thing for media streams on the platform, it seems weird not to have it elsewhere.

I'd be very interested in hearing about the benefits as well. Memory, CPU, speed, battery drain?
