Explain relationship to fetch's keep-alive concept

Open annevk opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

Given that @igrigorik and I are planning on merging sendBeacon() into fetch() and this offers similar functionality, but for the response scenario rather than the request scenario, it might be nice to explore the overlap a bit.

(See https://github.com/w3c/beacon/pull/27#issuecomment-242101892 onwards for context.)

I've referenced this in the updated explainer, but leaving this open to investigate more.
