When they don't have an associated browsing context, src/data can be set and as a result of that a browsing context ends up being created. However, subsequent sets do not seem to remove that browsing context (e.g., if you go from a document to an image). That seems problematic?

Fetching also seems to wait for the entire response body, rather than just for a response. That likewise seems wrong.

Since navigation handles the load event too, it seems that for loads that end up in a browsing context, navigation should probably take care of the final load event?

Maybe this and #1461 can be duplicated against https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=24852 which discusses some of this in more detail.

As part of this we should make sure that about:blank remains same-origin (since fetching it will taint it per whatwg/fetch#384).
