FIXME myk's request
I would still require consumers to call .get(), since the constructor's name
suggests it is a subclass of Request, and hewing to the original API (except
for the methods that aren't implemented) seems like the most understandable
implementation of such a subclass.
* Contrary to Request() opts can have onError callback, and
