--- Comment #1 from Masatoshi Kimura <VYV03354@nifty.ne.jp> ---
Banning query part doesn't contradict with the generic URI syntax. The generic
syntax only defines the syntax. It doesn't affect the scheme-specific
semantics. 

Blob URLs containing a query part is invalid just like HTTP URLs containing a
userinfo part. Although the fragment part is forbidden to have the
scheme-specific semantics [1], the query part is not.

BTW File API refers the URL Standard [2] rather than RFC 3986, although the
result is the same regarding the blob URL parsing.

    > Fragment identifier semantics are independent of the
    > URI scheme and thus cannot be redefined by scheme specifications.
