--- Comment #6 from Simon Pieters <simonp@opera.com> ---
[[
If a resource identified with a blob: URL is a File object, user agents must
use that file's name attribute, as if the response had a Content-Disposition
header with the filename parameter set to the File's name attribute [RFC6266].
]]

This seems good.

[[
In particular, "File Save As" behavior must use the File's name attribute as
the default name to save the file as.
]]

This seems bad. It's a different requirement than the first, but we actually
only want the first, I think. If you intended this sentence to be non-normative
describing the implications of the first requirement, then don't use 'must'
here.

I suggest you remove the second sentence and maybe add a note like "This means
that 'File Save As' takes the File's name attribute into account for the
default name to save the file as." or some such.
