Description

The fetch spec mentions "realm" and "relevant realm" a lot. I assume this is something similar to async context in NodeJS? Should we try to translate the API and implement accordingly?

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests. Start by reading the Fetch specification sections that define “realm” and “relevant realm”, then compare those concepts with NodeJS async context. Done means the relationship is decided and any resulting API or implementation work is explicitly scoped.
