Bug ID: 23946
Summary: Lift the ban on query parts in “blob:” URIs
Product: WebAppsWG
Version: unspecified
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: File API

The blob:-URI scheme explicitly forbids query parts. RFC 3986 on the other hand
explicitly allows query parts,
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#section-3.4>. (The “(if any)” refers to the
existance of a naming authority in my reading.)
So the forbidding of query parts makes blob: a non-URI in the sense of that
RFC. Are there any hard reasons to forbid query parts? Just from reading the
spec, that move seems arbitrary. There might be useful applications, though,
e.g., parametrising dynamically generated JS in a blob.
