That depends on whether the Promise specification gets cancellations. I like fetch's clean API, but being able to cancel my ajax requests is essential.

Cancel the requests, or cancel the callback chain that's set up to fire when they complete?

The big use-case I can think of is file uploads. If someone is uploading a large file, you wanna be able to cancel it.
