Re: [whatwg/fetch] Improve "populate request from client" for null client cases (PR #1820)

I'm not 100% sure this is correct.

As far as I can tell, request's window is used for showing dialogs, e.g. for WWW-Authenticate or client certs. Browser UI navigations probably still show those dialogs.

Maybe the issue is that request's window should really be something like request's traversable navigable? Because if we're just talking about where UI is shown, then it's not in a specific `Window` object. It's in a browser tab.

Unfortunately there are a lot of specs that seem to reference request's window... https://dontcallmedom.github.io/webdex/w.html#window%40%40request%40dfn I haven't audited them all.
