BodyConsumer currently aborts the consumption on window freeze (aka entering bfcache) but the page should kept intact when entering and leaving bfcache, and if that's impossible it should not enter bfcache at all.

(Unsure what to do here though, is it okay to continue reading for a frozen window? What happens when it finishes?)

This is technically related to FetchBody, so putting it in networking. (Although it's also being used for blob methods)

Like I said in this comment, it'd be faster for someone from DOM team to fix this.
