Description

We already get request options in the function, but I am wanting to retry an action if the fetch fails. If we had the action in the postfetch I could just dispatch the action again.

Is there a different way to retry an action if it fails?

Research direction
Examine the postfetch function in the redux api source code to understand how request options are passed. Investigate if there is already a mechanism to retry failed fetches. The goal is to add an action parameter to postfetch so that the action can be re dispatched on failure. Check comments and existing issues for prior discussion.
