While this doesn't address the first two points, the fallback story can 
be somewhat improved by using text/html-sandboxed:

<iframe src="data:text/html-sandboxed,<!DOCTYPE html><p>test"></iframe>

The fallback for this is then the same as for using text/html-sandboxed 
over HTTP, which admittedly has its own set of problems in current browsers.
