Bad url error and inability to download *blob* objects. #158

Can you leave more details?

The error occurs when attempting to add any values prefixed with blob:

Screenshots demonstrating error: error-on-blob

Source URL providing sample binary blob: javascript.info/blob In javascript.info/blob#blob-as-url a download of sample text "Hello, world!" is generated via JavaScript and comes in the form of a blob, but is unable to be downloaded.

My main concern is blobs seem to be more commonly used to provide downloads.

A URL generated from JavaScript Blob cannot be converted to a "regular" URL. A blob URL doesn't refer to data that exists on the server, it refers to data that your browser is currently holding in memory for the current page. It will not be available on other pages, it will not be available in other browsers, and it will not be accessible from other download managers. So I can only try to add support to the Navi in-build browser that will be able to fetch the data.
