Re: [whatwg] Canvas image to blob/dataurl within Worker

Is everyone here aware that currently Google have stated they do not plan
to implement toBlob?:
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=67587

IMO this is the wrong call. We should be favouring blobs over data URLs
since they are more efficient (no size bloat, can be requested async like
other network resources, no need to copy round very large strings).
