I recommend reading through
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2013JanMar/thread.html#msg569

Problems:

* Too much complexity for being an Blob without synchronous size.
* The API is bad. The API for File is bad too, but we cannot change
it, this however is new.

And I think we really want an IO API that's not about incremental, but
can actively discard incoming data once it's processed.
