Hello,

Thanks very much for this; just a Question or Feature Request: Is it possible to download from Blob URLs?

No, see

Blob URI/URL was created by JavaScript, refers to data that your browser currently has in memory (only in current page)

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30864573/what-is-a-blob-url-and-why-it-is-used

Blob URLs can only be generated internally by the browser These URLs can only be used locally in the single instance of the browser and in the same session (ie. the life of the page/document).
