(In reply to comment #9)

I'm honestly not sure it's too late to fix this to be right, especially since
we're not sure what's broken, but we are sure that leaked Blob strings can be a
"real problem."  

What can we do to fix the autoRevoke behavior to be better, or address the nits
you may have (per Comment 9)?  Right now autoRevoke=true is tied in with HTML's
global script cleanup steps.  Advice appreciated, maybe on the public listserv
(public-webapps@w3.org) if you think this bug isn't right. Spec at
