Nice article! It’s a great API, hope to see the kinks ironed out.
I am using it to stream PNG frames in real-time into a user’s file system, for web-based media tools. This allows the user to generate their own HD video files offline at maximum quality, bringing static web a little closer to pro level media tooling.
One downside aside from browser support is that two permissions must be requested for this: one to select the directory to save to, and then again to give write access.
