Based on feedback, I agree that a blanket `Promise.prototype.clear()` is a bad
idea. I don’t think that is worth pursuing.
I still think that there is value in this, especially the adding and removing
of listeners you have reference to as Andrea’s PoC shows. Listeners would
prevent the chaining issue or alternatively I think it would definitely be
possible to decide on intuitive behaviour with the clear mechanic. The benefit
of `clear(reference)` over listeners is that it adds less to the semantics.
I think the proposed userland solutions are bigger than I would want for
something that I believe should be available by default, but I respect that a
lot of the people in this conversation are in a better position to make a
judgement about that than me.
