Compare https://w3c.github.io/html/browsers.html#navigating-across-documents to https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#navigate. The latter calls into Fetch for processing, the former doesn't. This makes it pretty hard to port changes like whatwg/html#1230.

It would be helpful if the W3C version of this document picked up navigation-related changes to ensure that we don't have to write these kinds of hooks twice.

Move 'frame-ancestors' processing to navigation (whatwg/html#1230)
7201562 
This introduces a new 'navigation check', which we'll need to wire up to
HTML. That, in turn, requires HTML to use Fetch. WHATWG's does, W3C's
does not (w3c/html#548).

Talking with @estark37 a moment ago, referrer policy is another concrete example of a spec that this is going to block: see the series of patches that landed in WHATWG's HTML to resolve w3c/webappsec-referrer-policy#40.

Note that this is going to block CSP as well, due to the various navigation hooks we need (see whatwg/html#1619).

Thanks, we'll aim to port these changes in. Aiming for part of 5.2 is the most likely target.

Current 5.2 WD references fetch.
