Since fetch() is making life easier as is and in the spirit of promises, how
about taking it a step further to simplify the frequent use case of needing
to retrieve multiple resources and waiting for all to return?
If the first argument to fetch() could be an array, then fetch() could be
made to work like Promise.all() and return an array of the results to
then().
It seems easy enough to just write that yourself, e.g.
Promise.all(["image", "script"].map(url => fetch(url)))
works fine in Firefox Nightly.
Thanks, I realize it's doable that way, but I think it makes for less
distracting code when the implementation details of the map call and
such are avoided for something as basic as loading resources...
Best,
Brett
