Re: [whatwg/fetch] Deferred fetching (PR #1647)

Absolutely.
The key term here is "for ages". I think in most cases the developer would set their own activation deadline (or `activateAfter` as I suggest calling it), but the UA is free to decide that after some time in the background it's OK to activate deferred fetches.
