Hi,
currently File object cannot be constructed, only Blob can.
I'm currently implementing XHR blob upload, that blob can either be File
(selected by user) or programatically created Blob.
On server side :
1/ In case of File, I get file name as part of the file metadata (name,
size, type, etc)
2/ In case of Blob, I cannot specify name and I have to send it as
additional parameter and ignore name metadata
sending multiple files/blobs at once can be a mess
is there a reason, while File cannot be created? It is Blob with has
name and lastModifyDate .

Could there be File constructor, that would work as Blob constructor
with 3rd parameter specifying the name of the file and lastModifiedDate
set to creation date
