Without revoking the UA has to keep around the URL-string -> resource mapping for the lifetime of the page. Which in the world of web apps can be a very long time. Even worse, in the case of dynamically created blobs (blobbuilder, canvas.toFile/toBlob/getAsFile whatever we'll call it), the resource has to stay around at least on the users file system for the lifetime of the page.
So we are moving the responsibility to do things right to authors? Oh joy. Though I suppose it might just work for the most complex of applications, where they measure things such as memory usage, etc.
