Why wouldn't you provide a File object instead then? It seems a lot of use
cases here and elsewhere

Which GUID? Is that in the File API specification?

I mean UUID. It is the UUID part in URN of the File API spec. The UA can
choose any appropriate way to generate a unique string, like UUID.

Unless we want to treat the blob same as string, we might have to provider
some sort of filename. Since without it, the server side might have problem
to save it temporarily.

What about using a filename that is unique with repect to files sent in that
FormData (but it is up to the UA)? For example, a UA may choose to do Blob1,
Blob2, etc. For the content-type, application/octet-string seems most
fitting.
Here's the result applied to your example:

To be even safer, I'd remove dashes from it... I never knew why GUIDs have
those dashes - to make them easier to memorize? :-)
Seriously though, it would be nice to have XHR2 spec to have these details
spelled out, especially mime type (I think David meant
application/octet-stream)
