do you think Decker will eventually integrate new browser FileSystem API features? So someday it can save in-place? 

Currently the outlook seems poor.

As I understand it, the current solutions are either Chromium-specific or Firefox-specific, with no Safari support whatsoever. I'm not interested in adding features that can only work in bleeding-edge browsers, especially if that browser is Chrome.

Worse, most new web APIs are gated behind the requirement for a "secure context", which demands that the page itself be served via HTTPS and not accessed from a local filesystem. This severely limits what I can use in a standalone single-document HTML build of Decker.

If, in the future, a portable API becomes broadly available for saving in place, I'd be delighted to add support.

hmm, yeah. it seems like the new file system feature is not as useful as i was hoping it would be.
