Regarding blobs indexing, I think that it would be better if there was a
separate length and position. That way it could be possible to intersped
blobs with text, for example text that describes the blob and would be
used as a comment.  For example

So the index would be 2 informations, the length of the blob and an
information that allows to find the blob, either the absolute position
in the blobs, or the total length (blob+following text between blobs).
