[Bug 23431] File API should say what to do with the query string in blob: URLs

https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=23431

--- Comment #2 from Arun <arun@mozilla.com> ---
One "pro" of moving everything to Fetch would be to have a central place to
accommodate all the (proliferating) schemes.  For instance, File API defines
request-response behavior for the blob: scheme, much of which is reproduced in
mediastream: URLs.  Then, the FileSystem API will define the filesystem:
scheme, which is currently implemented in Chrome, and which the specification
will standardize.  If all of it is routed via Fetch, we'll have a single
normative source for URL dereferencing.

But I'm not *strongly* opinionated on this, and don't mind the solution of it
living in separate specifications.  For "LC" purposes, the File API will define
blob: and maybe successor drafts (including Fetch) can deal with the protocol
as it evolves (hopefully not too much).
