Safari bug prevents downloading all exported files

[phbrbr]

A known bug in Safari browser prevents downloading multiple files at once. It could be mitigated (see below) and a possible solution could eventually benefits users/other browsers.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Click on 'Save scene'
2. Get only 1 obj file instead of 3

Expected behavior Be able to get all exported 3D data with Safari (maybe without waiting for Apple to fix the bug)

Desktop:

• macOS 10.15.7
• Safari 14.0 (with WEBGL2 activated via Developper Menu > Experimental features)

Additional context IMHO even if Safari sometimes lags behind Chrome or Firefox concerning implemented features (less releases), it is a robust browser with nice dev tools. It made me rethink about the way the scene is exported as a user.

Generating a .zip file with all the .obj files inside could be a solution? Structuring the scene to export as a single file could be another one…

A few links I found about it:

I know it sounds like a feature request but let me know what you think.
