@Alexey Proskuryakov: I looked at the specification. I know what to do, in terms of the patch, and I'll start working on it.

At the same time, I think the specifications are not as clear as they could be, and I'd like to ask for the following changes on the mailing list. Can you please take a look and tell me if this looks reasonable?


The File API specification describes a good method for interpreting a Blob's type property as MIME type, in 6.4.1 Paragraph 4. http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/FileAPI/#methodsandparams-blob

I think this method should be referenced in the HTML 5.1 specification, in Section 4.10.22.7 (Multipart form data), in a new paragraph describing the handling of Blob form data. 
http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/forms.html#multipart/form-data-encoding-algorithm

I think the method should also be referenced in the XMLHttpRequest specification, in Section 4.6.6, Paragraph 4, in the sub-section describing Blob handling.
