[Technical] Better specify AbortController support #294

Open nsatragno opened 2 years ago

nsatragno commented 2 years ago

Credential Management exposes an abort signal. FedCM says

The signal is used as an abort signal for the requests.

This is great! However, the spec does not elaborate further how the abort signal is treated, which is up to each API. There's some guidance on how to do this. For example, what happens if to the fetches after a request is aborted? What happens to the UI?
