Hi @iherman. We're looking at this in our W3CTAG breakout, and we'd love a little more context.

What are you trying to accomplish with data URLs? Why is it helpful to restrict them? It seems like you've got a use case in mind, but it's hard to work it out from the spec you've linked to. 

We think it may be to do with security, but we don't see it documented. Can you tell us a bit more about your thinking? 

We can hopefully help more with that information. Thanks!
