Pretty long function name... I agree that it is better to have a verbose
function name instead of something short that gives a wrong impression
of what the function does and I can't think of a shorter, yet
descriptive way to name the function.

If nobody comes up with an alternative suggestion, I will change it to
read_blob_data_from_index_path() and resubmit.
