Re: [whatwg/fetch] should Response.blob() type include parameters like charset? (#540)

I'm dropping in some links here which I believe most developers in the know use when referencing APIs for development in 2017, and the descriptions of those items:

http://devdocs.io/dom/blob/type

> The type property of a Blob object provides the MIME type of the file. It returns an empty string if the type couldn't determined.

http://devdocs.io/dom/response/headers

> The headers read-only property of the Response interface contains the Headers object associated with the response.

As things are `blob.type` is the MIME type and `Content-Type` (including properties such as `charset`) can be pulled from a response header in a network context. Why would we converge on something which is not common knowledge and can already be determined using other mechanisms?
