Anything's possible, but I think the pain here would far outweigh the
benefits. There would be some really hard questions to answer, too
(e.g.
what would innerHTML return? If you copied such an image from a
contentEditable section and pasted it lower down the same section,
would
it still have the image?).
We could define that it returns an empty src attribute, which would
break the copy/paste example. That's the same behavior you'd get with
someone revoking the URL upon load anyway.

The point of reusable Blob URL is the compatibility with regular URL,
not having reusable URL would create unpleasant dichotomy in data
manipulating...
What do you think of a global release mechanism? Such as
URL.revokeAllObjectUrls();
