Currently, it is possible to use a Blob to mint a File object using a File
constructor.  A File is essentially a Blob with a name.

The file's name should be used in "Save As" behavior in browsers.  This might
include use of Content-Disposition as an additional part of the blob:scheme's
request-response semantics, or perhaps the specification need not mention
Content-Disposition at all (since this could be an internal implementation
mapping) and simply say that the file's name should be used in "Save As"
functionality.
