It sounds like it would be better to re-use the http client. That we it would
use keep-alive for multiple requests.

We cannot keep the client alive as the request is synchronous with the loading
execution (we need to exit this run loop before we can make forward progress).
Also there is no guarantee that the next request is going to the same host, so
you would not necessarily be able to reuse the connection anyway.

         }).catchError((error) {
           _requestFailed(error);
