Comment:

Maybe it could be implemented using a "text bin" converter. You'd need a prefilter for bin requests to add responseType: "arraybuffey" into options.xhrFields though. And that's provided xhr.responseText === xhr.response which I'm really not sure about.

So, this may require changes in the xhr transport... but I'm unsure if this is already "standard" enough (ie. not requiring insane jumping through hoops).

    initial v2  
    11it would be nice if we could get "arraybuffer" or "blob" response type from ajax request.[[BR]]
    2 it seems direct "blob" response is not yet supported by all browser (chrome don't) but we can easily build it from arraybuffer:[[BR]]

    4 var xhr=new XMLHttpRequest();[[BR]]
    5 xhr.open("GET",url,true);[[BR]]
    6 xhr.responseType="arraybuffer";[[BR]]
    7 xhr.onload=function(){[[BR]]
    8     if (this.status==200){[[BR]]
    9         var bb=new BlobBuilder();[[BR]]
    10         bb.append(this.response);[[BR]]
    11         var blob=bb.getBlob());[[BR]]
    12         ...[[BR]]
    13     }[[BR]]
