Research direction

Start by comparing HTML's StructuredSerializeForStorage behavior with the Blob and File handling discussed in this issue, then review the linked IndexedDB issues 170 and 203. Done means the specification clearly defines whether the data is cloned or referenced.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Noted in https://github.com/w3c/IndexedDB/issues/170 and https://github.com/w3c/IndexedDB/issues/203 but better tackled here: HTMLs StructuredSerializedForStorage vs. Blobs/Files doesn't rigorously define that the data is cloned or referenced.
