Re: [whatwg/fetch] Deferred fetching feedback (Issue #1715)

It is no more powerful in the sense that there is no new information that you can extract with this API. It is more reliable and as a result can reduce the number of requests made since now you can safely allow data to accumulate instead of eagerly shipping it home, knowing that it *will* be sent.

If we restrict this, devs are just going to use `fetch()` without `keepalive` and they are going send data eagerly to avoid it being lost. There are no limits at all on payload size for `fetch()`s. That seems strictly worse.

Is there a specific concern that you are trying to guard against?
