Specification

(Not yet available) - I will be prototyping out a solution to then specify in 
HTML.

Summary

This feature proposes `ElementInternals#connectedSignal` which is an 
`AbortSignal` created when the element is connected to the DOM and aborted when 
the element disconnects from the DOM.


Blink component

Blink>DOM 
<https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/list?q=component:Blink%3EDOM>

Motivation

A common technique for Custom Element authors is add event listeners or fetch 
requests that are attached to the connected state of an element - typically by 
passing in an AbortController Signal which is aborted on disconnectedCallback. 
It can be a little cumbersome to set up such an AbortController, and would 
simplify ergonomics if Custom Elements had a built-in AbortSignal that 
represented the connected state.
