Extensions API currently offers resource meta-information in HAR format, but skips the bodies for efficiency reasons. It is suggested to expose a separate webInspectror.resources.getBodies(resourceIdList) method for extensions to access the resource bodies.
Ideally, we would use blobs to return the bodies. However, it appears that blobs are not fully functional yet, so it is suggested to return strings, using base64 for binary resource types.
