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?

I guess with the `img` element such architecture might be somewhat problematic as it's not always clear what thread updates are requested from? (Although in browser reality it might just be that the `img` element definition is wrong as there are other "main thread" considerations here too, such as the currently active CSP and such.)
