Re: [w3c/FileAPI] Async factory methods for Blob and File (#157)

I think the difference would be that with the sync constructors you wouldn't know if construction failed; you'd only get an error as soon as something tries to read from the blob (that's already how it works today in chrome; blob construction can already fail). While with these async factories you could detect and handle these errors sooner. While I agree that most developers probably wouldn't care/bother, it does seem like some subset of developers would probably like to be able to detect these kinds of errors.
