given that (AFAICT) the cited examples are closed source, it's not self-evident that they have semantics compatible with what's being proposed here. are you asserting that they do – i.e. these API could be re-implemented with the proposed Observed type? are there open source examples that could be used here instead?
…version for explicitly constructing Observed untilFinished
This proposal contains a modification to the Observation module that adds a new type. This type is an
AsyncSequencethat produces values over time by tracking transactional changes to@Observablemarked types.
