Specification

https://github.com/whatwg/dom/pull/919

Summary

This feature adds a new AbortSignal option, named "signal", to the options parameter of addEventListener(). The "signal" option must first be created by an AbortController by accessing the "signal" property on an AbortController instance. Once the signal is passed in to addEventListener, calling "abort()" on the AbortController will remove the event listener added with addEventListener. For more context, see https://github.com/whatwg/dom/issues/911.

Brand new! :)
 


Web developers: No signals

I don't know if this is an accurate description, as it seems like the HTML issue was started by a web developer. It also feels like something web developers would have strong opinions on :)
+Thomas Steiner would it be a good exercise to try the https://goo.gle/developer-signals process in this case and see what it gives?
