I'll try to get this continued in a decent manner on www-svg. As for the root of this topic, compressing a blob -- I don't think packaging should be done on the UA side. There are so many different ways that zip archives are presented, if the UA were responsible, I'd still need to go back to using work-arounds when I come across a zip archive that has a flag unrecognized by the UA. I'd like to revisit the issue later, as I would so very much like to see round trip base64 and deflate methods exposed to the scripting environment. -Charles
