Re: [whatwg/fetch] Aborting a fetch: The Next Generation (#447)

I know I'm late for the party and missed something, but why the attribute name was chosen to be just `signal` and not, for example, `abortSignal`? If at any future point there will be a need to provide other signals to `fetch`, how is this change planned to be made without breaking compatibility? I saw somewhere that the type `AbortSignal` may be changed to a `FetchSignal`, how would this look like? Thank you.
