Re: [whatwg/dom] Improving ergonomics of events with Observable (#544)

One difference (though not sure if this is relevant): Promises require special platform hooks to implement correctly due to the timing requirements on resolving a promise. But Observables don't. They would have almost exactly the same behavior whether implemented in the JS engine, in the browser engine (or other JS hosting environment), or in pure JS.

(To be clear: I have no particular opinion on whether they should be specified in an ES-like way or a DOM-like way, what venue this should be done in, or if they should be standardized at all.)
