1271950 - The stream example from Fetch API spec text fails with "res.body is undefined"

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1128959

(Core :: Networking, defect)

(or run the attached file)

This file contains the streamed data download example from https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#fetch-api, under the example "If you want to receive the body data progressively:".

Observed:

On Chrome, the data is streamed in progressively and console prints a running sequence of messages "received 11112 bytes (478056 bytes in total)".

On Firefox Nightly, the res.body field seems to be missing and it results in "something went wrong: TypeError: res.body is undefined".

We don't have streams implemented yet.  Working on it bug 1128959 and its dependencies.
