That's what I imagined.

http://www.w3.org/TR/FileAPI/#dfn-networkError this section has some answer,
but not so well-defined.

Since currently abort()-kind functions are omitted from Stream, we cannot
explicitly tell the URL to fail loaders. Maybe when garbage collection happens
without close() called, do somework to fail load on the object URL?
