Re: [whatwg/fetch] Convenience method to stream a response as text (Issue #1861)

foolip left a comment (whatwg/fetch#1861)

On the encoding, matching `text()` means forcing UTF-8. That being said, a mode that respects the encoding in `Content-Type` seems like it would be less surprising than ignoring it. At this point such a mode (or an explicit encoding) would have to be an extra argument, which we should then give to both `text()` and `textStream()`.

I don't have a strong view, but will note that because it's quite easy to work around with `.pipeThrough(new TextDecoderStream("big5"))` I think we probably wouldn't hear demands for this even if it was a nuisance that many people are working around.
