*Specification*
https://github.com/whatwg/fetch/pull/1862
*Summary*
Add textStream() to interfaces that represent a byte stream (request,
response, blob). This is equivalent to piping the byte stream through
a TextDecoderStream(), and reduces this small piece of broilerplate
for commoncases.
*Blink component*
Blink>Network>FetchAPI
<https://issues.chromium.org/issues?q=customfield1222907:%22Blink%3ENetwork%3EFetchAPI%22>
*Web Feature ID*
Missing feature
*Motivation*
A small ergonomic change to make it easier to stream text from a byte
stream such as response (or blob) to a sink that accepts strings.
Helps with a footgun of forgetting to pipe through a TextDecoderStream.

small for an official standards position)
/Web developers/: No signals

*WebView application risks*
Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such
that it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications?

Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or
interop issues. Please list open issues (e.g. links to known github
issues in the project for the feature specification) whose resolution
may introduce web compat/interop risk (e.g., changing to naming or
structure of the API in a non-backward-compatible way).
