Flutter web does "hot restart" instead of "hot reload". Is "hot reload" supported on flutter web?

Question

I have used flutter_web for a while now and never really questioned that it always restarted the whole application when pressing "hot reload" but since now flutter_web got merged to the main flutter channel I´m wondering if I might do something wrong or if it's just not possible.

I am using the newest version of flutter (Channel dev, v1.10.14) and Chrome (Version 78.0.3904.70) and run the app in debug mode.

If this is unusual please tell me and i will upload my code. Thanks!

As per the FAQ of Flutter web hot reload is not supported yet. So we have to wait for some more time.
