Description

I would like to be able to access the file(s) that have been selected in the InputFile component from javascript to be able to do something like this:

URL.createobjecturl(file)

There is a lookup table in the underlying html/javascript element, but the Id of the file is internal. Is it possible to add the Id property to the IBrowserFile interface?

Or is there some other way that I can create an extension method for IBrowserFile so I can get to the URL.createobjecturl(file) underlying javascript call?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore adding an Id property to the IBrowserFile interface to expose the underlying JavaScript file handle, allowing use of URL.createObjectURL(file) from Blazor.
