Description Arun 2013-05-07 19:16:38 UTC 
Currently, both manual and automatic revocation of Blob URLs can result in ill-defined behavior, since references to Blob URLs despite revocation isn't solidly defined.

Discussions commencing at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2013AprJun/0461.html may lead to modifications to the fetch spec. that allow a reference to a Blob to be "pinned" before the algorithmic steps return.

This is incorrect, and was filed prematurely before anyone had a chance to reply on the list.  Please close it.
