Body Mixin `text()` is supposed to return `USVString`

@jasnell I think the Blob and consumer helper text() methods need to run through toUSVString which is used in the url module?

[jasnell]

To be fully compliant, yes we likely need to.

Should I take this issue up?

just notice util.toUSVString came out in 16.8, good for ppl writing polyfills... got a side question: dose TextDecoder.decode() return a USVString? cuz that is what i have been using in some .text() methods.... This will also remove BOM

I also wonder what the diffrent is between USVString and a "normal" string is and doing String(val) or ${val} to convert them
Maybe stream-consumers text(iterable) should resolve with a USVString also?

Anyone currently working on this issue? If not, can I try to solve it?

Hi @ronag I am working on this issue. I could see the Blob contains the text() method. what is consumer helper here? can you please point the file or provide some more information about it?
